By numbers: Earlier this week when I realised that I was burned out, another part of the evidence was that I couldn’t figure out what to do to begin to get better... It's worth thinking about before you need to.
Your featured photography in this post is really stunning. I especially love the series beginning with the goose. Such tension and reflection within your choice of photos--nature, human, infrastructure. All coexisting. Being. Rising.
Prior to reading this post, I was not familiar with the symptoms of ADHD overlapping so closely with burnout. I’m recovering from deep burnout myself which struck in Spring 2021. Having grace and learning to accept this new state of being has been a journey for certain. But now I see (and trust) it’s leading me to my most aligned life, in support of the natural flow of my body and mind.
The symptoms are also similar to fibromyalgia (which I have), just add in chronic pain. But confusingly, they are also symptoms of menopause (which I have just gone through, and you look too young for). Often we struggle on as things disintegrate slowly and we think the symptoms are normal. So it´s goof if you have been able to get an accurate diagnosis and you know what to do to be well. I wish you lazy times for a few weeks!
