People underestimate burnout, but if you consistently press through burnout like I did for 20+ years, you can end up with stress related illnesses that last forever and don't go away... Stress can 100% unalive even the healthiest of people. You could be in physical pain the rest of your life. Rest now. Anyone being mean to you about it can get lost.

I have seen quite a few people on TikTok create content for their "my 9 to 5 and then 5 to 9" work/job life, and I know of another person creating content to showcase their work life 'in order to save $100,000' (they have 2 Full-Time jobs). It just astounds me that anyone would see this as inspiring because these mentalities are ableist as hell and do not take into account how the small billion class is complicit in most of the world's suffering; but also how these 'takes' are so far removed from the fact that under capitalism our bodies are seen as expendable. All around the world people are working themselves to the bone and are still struggling -and we must keep challenging and resisting capitalism. The more people glorify -romanticize this lifestyle of constant work are going to burn out and destroy their health. For companies who do not care. Who see you are replaceable literally -it's just sad and frustrating.
I stumbled upon this Instagram page a long time ago, and Tricia Hersey's work on "rest is resistance" is so incredibly important (there are many intricacies to her work and she addresses these intersections in her book and on her social media as well). They have a blog and are on Instagram and Twitter:

78/366 Days of Growth
Images from my weekend!
I didn't know I need this that much.
Now I can come back to my studies with peace of mind, and more focus.
Finishing my CISCO CS course, doing my Anki cards, and reviewing the domains for the ISC2 CC Exam!
Have you all a great week ☺️💓

i'm thinking about the necessity of rest and how so many people don't allow themselves rest because they view it as "unproductive." and it just... hurts to think about.
i joke about how i'm the "no hw past 9 pm" friend in my chem study group but there's more to it. it's the fact that so many of my friends and peers work themselves to the bones on the regular that me saying that i have such hard limits on when i do and don't work is unfathomable.
like it should not be a shocking thing to hear someone say "you deserve rest. you deserve a break." i told my friends recently that burnout and being in physical pain is not the normal state of being, and i'm not really sure how much that actually got through to them.
i see my friends burning themselves out on the regular, i see them injuring their bodies and not allowing for proper healing, and it sucks. it fucking sucks. i don't want to watch people, especially the people i love, destroy their bodies for the sake of some mythical kind of productivity.
rest is productive. healing is productive. joy is productive.
you're not going to be proud of what you do or make if by the end of it you're so worn out that you can't do anything but crash.
i know it's hard to rest in this capitalist hellscape of a world, but i promise you whatever little amount you're able to find is worth it. sometimes that one assignment can wait until the morning. sometimes the laundry can wait another day.
i want us to get old and i want the lives we have ahead of us to be worth it. i don't want us to spend our lives crashing and burning, rinse and repeat.
because are our accomplishments really worth it if we never let ourselves enjoy the process? i don't want to get my degrees at the cost of my own well being, because i can't imagine being proud of something that completely destroyed me.
please, let yourself rest. let yourself find joy. because your rest and joy are so so precious and productive.

This is your reminder that "i'm busy" doesn't have to mean you're doing Tasks and Important Things. Sometimes you just want to do things like draw or read or watch a show, and that's not "doing nothing". You're allowed to deliberately do those things. You're allowed to prioritize them, to put them in your calendar, to say you can't hang out or clean (or whatever it might be) right now because you're doing those things. You're allowed to rest. You're allowed to do little calm things for fun.

100 days of productivity — day 9, week 2
I took this day as a lil bit of a break after my mid term exams, I went out with my friends to Snow World! 🌹 I'm working on focusing on relaxing today, and learning to do so without feeling like I need to do something productive or that I'm wasting my time — because as we all know, resting is productive! I'm going to get back on track tomorrow.
To do list:
Work on poetry
Complete the last piece of writing & submit it on time!

This bronchitis is kicking my ass.
This infected tonsil is kicking my ass.
I hate that I don’t know how to relax and I feel useless when I’m not being productive.

I did enough today!
I cleaned my room (tidied, dusted, made bed)! I cleaned my toilet (sensory ICK) and my shower and my bathroom floor (I’ve never done that before)! I FaceTimed a friend! I burned a candle so my room smells more like a tavern than bathroom cleaner! I filled out forms and sent the email! I finished reading Return of the King (the appendices)!
And yet… my brain tells me I should do more. I should be writing. I should be reading. I should be figuring out how to start the potential tutoring job.
Trying to just be satisfied as I am.
