Partner Won’t Listen

My partner complains almost everyday that they are overstimulated from work and that their body hurts. We have the same “conversation”, which is basically just me talking at them, to take time off. They never listen. Today, they showed me that their ankle was swollen which makes sense because they worked 6 days last week. They told me that “all they know how to do is work”. My partner lives with their mom, if they take time off it won’t really make much of a difference. It’s really because they think that money/working will solve all their problems. They have their entire life to work, I just don’t understand why they don’t want to take care of themselves. It’s just hard to get through to them.
