How do you detach from work? I’m wired at this point to be so attached that even when I’m off I’m super stressed out, and have to look at emails and keep up or else I get severe anxiety. Anybody?

Since its been nice outside, I’ve been taking a lot of walks. Even if it’s a 10 min walk in my neighborhood while I sip my coffee, it’s a huge stress reliever. Also I like reading in bed and lighting candles. I will say I haven’t figured out how to completely detach. I still have bad anxiety even on the weekends (well I do have to work weekends) so trying to figure it out myself.
