The first light of morning creeps through the slits in the curtains, painting pale, uncertain lines across the floor. I sit with my cup, which still warms my palms, watching the steam curl and vanish into the cool air of the room—just like the images from my dream that still weigh heavy on my eyelids, refusing to dissolve fully into wakefulness. There is something strange about this state between two worlds, a sense of the soul's permeability that is strongest in the early hours. I have always known that the night is not merely a time for rest, but a stage for deep, invisible work. But today I feel it with particular clarity: a dream is not just a personal archive; it is not merely a drawer for my own tidy or cluttered memories. It is a wide-open space in which I cease to be only "I" and become part of a vast, breathing network.

Burnout

 #Burnout is a state of emotional, physical, and mental exhaustion caused by prolonged or #chronicstress. It is often a result of feeling overwhelmed, drained, and unable to cope with the demands of work, relationships, or other responsibilities. Here are some common reasons for burnout:

✅ Work-related stress: Burnout can be caused by high levels of stress at work, such as long working hours, a heavy workload, unclear job expectations, lack of support or resources, and a #toxicwork environment.

✅ Personal or family-related stress: Burnout can also be caused by stress in personal or family life, such as financial worries, relationship problems, caregiving responsibilities, or a lack of work-life balance.

✅ Lack of control: Burnout can result from feeling like you have no control over your work or personal life, such as a lack of autonomy, decision-making power, or flexibility in your job or personal responsibilities.

✅ #Perfectionism: Burnout can be caused by setting high standards for yourself and striving for perfection, which can lead to constant self-criticism, self-doubt, and a fear of failure.

✅ Lack of social support: Burnout can be caused by a lack of social support, such as feeling isolated, disconnected, or unsupported by friends, family, or colleagues.

✅ Values misalignment: Burnout can be caused by a misalignment between your personal values and the values of your job or workplace, which can result in a sense of disconnection or meaninglessness.

It's important to recognize the signs of burnout and take steps to prevent it. This can include setting realistic goals and boundaries, practicing self-care, seeking support from friends, family, or a professional, and making changes in your work or personal life as needed.
