Feeling Burned Out

Recently I have been struggling to find a balance between the different parts of my life. I think my lack of blog posts and interacting with others can attest to that. It’s not that I don’t want to. It’s just that I have been struggling to be motivated to want to sit down and write for my blog.

I think my biggest problem is that I am just burned out. I can’t remember the last time I worked just a 40-hour workweek. My average work hours are anywhere from 45 to 50 hours a week, and it’s been like this for the past year. That’s not healthy. However, I know that I am incredibly grateful to have had a stable income for the past year, and my job could be way worse than it is. But I am just exhausted.

Being exhausted has led to struggling with the other parts of my life. These past couple of months, I have found working out to no longer be a burden. But these past two weeks, I have worked out twice because I am so unmotivated. I find it hard to want to be socially active and talk to my friends. I always say I’ll text them tomorrow, but I never do.

This has just been a post about me ranting and complaining more than anything. And I don’t want to come off as someone who is always negative. There are good things in my life that I am grateful for. However, I don’t think my weekly Buy Yourself Some Flowers will be a thing; I no longer like the idea, lol.

I guess what I am trying to say is that recently I have been struggling to do things other than work. I know I have the time, but work has just been draining me lately.

I hope everyone is doing well and staying safe. If anyone wants to rant and complain, I’m always here. Here’s to hoping next month is better.

Thanks for reading!
