i was job hunting but ive become too burnt for that
stopped exercising, socializing, cleaning, even stopped enjoying games
tried to fix that a little bit this weekend, I cooked for the first time in a long time. deep cleaned my room. caught up on all my laundry including bedding. played fallout for a few hours
I was able to achieve mindfulness I hadn't had in a long time, I was enjoying the moment for what it was
exercised yesterday too. I knew I wasn't actually getting better, just actually able to take advantage of the moment for once. and now at the moment has become "work", I'm instantly back to burnt
I would like to resume looking for jobs but on weekdays I just go home, shower, and hardly even scroll
I suppose the answer is to search on weekends, I can do that this weekend
Consider this the first step to improving your situation. Take on job hunting incrementally. Work on your resume today, apply to 1 job listing another day, etc. Make it a routine that you tackle bit by bit in a way that's manageable. You're right, you don't want it to burn you out or overwhelm you. It has to be a sustainable effort.
