I'm crashing out harder than I expected. On day three of staying at home right now thinking it was going to be a little break to prevent a further crashing but I'm starting to wonder if it isn't too late already. I'm just really tired and emotional. Like, even standing up requires an unreasonable amount of effort. I have one task for the day of picking up a package for my partner and it's stressing me out. But at the same time I don't want to sleep or stay in the house for the entire day.

It's a really strange experience to say the least. Looking back there were definitely some signs that I should slow down but honestly I expected a more gradual change in mental state. This just feels like hitting a wall that was suddenly there. Fuck this system man.

I can relate to that, most of my working life has been burnout after burnout. You ignore the signs for too long, then finally take a break when it's too much, and then it all comes crashing down worse than you thought it would.

I hope you're able to prolong your break somehow, I've found these things need a long time to go away. Although I know it's rare privilege to be able to do that.
