I just had a four day break from work. Usually if I have more than 2 days off I end up feeling refreshed and ready to go back into work. But these past few months taking time off just makes me understand what life could’ve been like if our society values personal time over working for the majority of our lives. I get stressed and anxious even when I’m supposed to be resting. Work has turned into such a big part of my identity it’s absurd. It’s quite a depressing feeling. I am grateful to have a job and don’t take it for granted as a value financial security. I do want to learn how to manage burnout and create a healthier work environment for myself. I just don’t know how.
