codekendo | 6 years ago | on: Ask HN: I think I’ve burnt out. What should I do?

I want to let you know I am going through a similar situation. I did not quit work but I am taking a break from my work.

Have a wall or separation between work and life; find balance. Do not make work a priority in your life, separate the two.

Ask yourself brings you joy and happiness and just do it. Work does not define you, it should be a means to bring about joy and happiness.

If work is a place where you cannot achieve balance or a really negative place, I would work there until you find a better environment.

If work is a positive place, focus on what you have, reach out to people, ask them if they felt the same way and how they manage those feelings.

I wish you the best of luck on your search to find balance in your life.
