summary
Personal burnout escalates through stacked life events and perfectionist habits, leads to a medical leave of 3.5 months, and resolves via structured rest, talk therapy and professional coaching plus behavioral changes. Antidepressants help for about six weeks to gain perspective but are stopped for side effects. Recovery uses concrete practices: daily meditation and yoga nidra, nature time with horses, pruning social media and hiring cleaning help, and a career pivot to a new role with a four-day workweek that sustains improved balance and effectiveness.
