Feeling burned out, can manifest in various ways like not being able to honour commitments, making plans and then breaking them because you don’t have the energy to follow through. This has happened to me quite often.

A HUUUUUGE sigh of relief in my body when I heard you explain what lazy is and isn’t. I’m highly motivated to get stuff done and help others get stuff done as well. I guess I am getting trapped in these burnout patterns more and more. I’m in another one (burnout) right now. My attitude is “whatever”. I have no energy left to do anything but just survive until my capacity replenishes. And thinking back into the past several decades, although not as common as now (parenting 3 ages 9-17), I only remember hearing myself or others use the word lazy. And when I take time to replenish, all I hear are my mothers words, “stop feeling sorry for yourself”, or “are you having a pity party?” I don’t know what she had to deal with growing up but I was born in ‘70’s and those words laced my childhood and youth and I never recall a time where somebody tried to find out what was happening or help me process whatever was happening. Now I’m having to do this work by myself - with the aid of several YT’ers such as yourself. I come here for my self care to get wisdom from those who understand and care. It truly does help when seeing somebody in person isn’t feasible. I’m going to share this with my husband. He asked how he could help me and I shrugged my shoulders. I hope and pray that he will be able to hear and understand this so he can understand me a bit better. We’ve been married for almost 19 years and gone through some hard times, but there’s always more to learn. Thank you Doc Snipes🥰

Dr. Snipes; Thank you for your thoughts. I am recovering from years of abuse. It is surprising to me how cruel people can be that are supposed to be on your side. I think i developed my psychological myopia in childhood. Now I can see. You are a help- keep doing good work.

Excellent video. You hit on every single point! I find myself saying a lot "There aren't enough hours in the day." "I'll sleep when I am dead." (the opposite is true. I find I am sleeping too much). Disconnection, irritability, feeling depleted, lack of dopamine, difficulty prioritizing....yep. Even though I may not have been a Tyoe A, highly driven person before, I can sense the difference. I have never had this feeling of being crushed under. Feeling like I have all of these responsibilities, but I don't have the luxury of being able to delegate. There are definite stressors I can identify. My mother is quite ill and immobile (in and out of the hospital, but mostly in for the past 6 months), my husband has limited mobility due to his long term condition, and his condition is affected by lack of dopamine. I have an auto immune condition. These are a part of it for sure. I have also identified information burnout. Which information at what time should I be attending to? I have all of these paid subscriptions to further my education, but I can never seem to get to them. I can't even get to basic paperwork things, let alone taxes. Ugh! It's not like I don't have awareness about tools. I don't have consistency in applying them or I don’t find they are accessible to me right now, other than one thing, breathing. I think what makes it especially hard is if you are going through life changes internally, like peri-menopausal or menopausal, and I am also trying to get off of prednisone for my auto-immune condition, and so my adrenal function is busy trying to rebuild itself, so there are physical causes too. All of these things together contribute to exhaustion. I have bought different workbooks to compartmentalize my life, like a chore journal, a financial journal, a food journal, and a productivity journal, rather than putting everything into a giant to do list. From there, I can then schedule things in my agenda. This way I don’t have to write so many details, as the details have already been listed elsewhere. This system helps with brain fog too.

What I really like about this video is the human approach this doctor takes. It can happen to anyone, and Dr. Snipes even used herself as an example. I was burned out even before my mother became very ill. It was a slow build up over the past several years. My mother getting sick was just one more thing to add on to the situation. Another thing was a water leak in my son’s bedroom coming from behind the wall underneath the radiator. With February being an already short month, I couldn’t afford to have this happen. Having to wash and rewash a bunch of towels on top of all of the regular chores. Thankfully, it has been all fixed! I live in an apartment so I didn’t have to worry about all of the repairs. Building management took care of it. I have fallen quite far behind on a lot of things. Today is the last day of the month. I have concrete deadlines so better get to them. Praying for strength.

And I have a lot of things need to be fixed like visiting my daughter as she is 12 years now I never saw her since 10 years. Ya.

I can't push through on more things all of the time. And I am cutting more corners all of the time. I remember back to things I did in the 90s it's like watching a movie of another person. And yet certain individuals have made judgments as if I just dont want to work or am lazy in some way. People have no idea what I carry and how frustrated I am. Helpless and hopeless is the right word and always pushing hard to do what has to be done. I think my body is always in a burned out mode.

What is it if I've always been isolative/withdrawn, I fluctuate from burnout/depression to energy- although within the realm of my house. Work on the other hand is similar, I'm either super drained for no particular reason or I feel good and motivated to get my job done. My point is when I'm home, when I do have energy and continue isolating- Is that laziness? I may exercise or have motivation to write, but I also feel like I waste energy on video games... no matter what mood I'm in.

Work is automatic for the body, while the mind is on something else, depending on the responsibilities at work. In Warehouse it's easy, also I've had cash handling and customer service jobs where I feel hungover and just endure it, which is stupid, but people do develop the drinking habit for stress relief. I'm not drinking now, and it is very hard to get out of these bad habits. In most jobs I've had I never use an excuse not to go to work unless I'm seriously ill. I look back sometimes and wonder how I managed to to that. It's mostly supplying the body with just enough to get the job done.

As a frontline nurse during the Covid pandemic, burn out is real! On top of that, we contend with responsibilities outside of the work environment.

My previous work caused me depression that I never experienced before in my life. I lost a will to live, to do anything, I was just a slave of my work, my life. I hated the fact that you have to still live because I didn't see any purpose and sense in it. This was caused by working extreme amount of hours, sometimes 10,11 but sometimes 15 hours a day. It was also caused by complete lack of support from my employer , rather opposite as my workplace culture actually demanded people to work crazy hours (as my boss once asked me ' soo.. you don't work at night but you could'). This should give you rough idea. Finally by complete accident I changed the departments and now I couldn't be more happy. My free time came back and my will to live with it. I actually even enjoy my life again which I already thought is not possible anymore. Now whenever I remember those grim and sad times, it brings chills down my spine.

@@DocSnipes in order for burnout to appear in my life I need to get Honest and take responsibility for my actions on where I lost my Gratitude one day at at time and proceed from there by being Open to possibilities that I may have over justified the reasoning and remain Willing to get up when I fall rather than gloom and doom which may have or did put me in burnout.

Sleeping 15 or so hours a day, exhausted constantly. It feels like burnout. Housework piling up, going to try and do it. I have bipolar so it could be depression. Even when Im hungry it's an effort to even cook, and keep feeling guilty so much.

All of the above!!! Im depressed and burned out, therefore I'm lazy......sigh

I doubt very much you are lazy. You are depleted of energy. That is different from laziness.

People say I'm lazy but you know what it takes up all my time

@@DocSnipes As for being called Lazy, I grew up with this during school where I have been very apathetic towards school work and etc. I also noticed slight apathy even now towards some work stuff.

Could you do something on OCPD? There is not a lot out there, although it is the most prevalent personality disorder. It is hard to differentiate what is going on. Is it possible for an overstressed person to look OCPD?

😭😭😭🥺🥺 feel like...

I never been admitted to the hospital as a minor like my siblings, but my dad would scream at me when I was burned out. I am still angry.

My apartment is chaotic. I feel trapped in in this rut. I'm tired of this small apartment. I've been wanting to clean organize update upgrade and I can't. Day after day goes by, week after week, month after month and year after year and I can't seem to change this situation. I've tried vitamins, prayer, meditation, house cleaning motivation videos, self hypnosis, anti depressants... nothing seems to help. What is left to do?

Been there. The only thing that helped me was changing my perspective. Changing my perspective to gratitude helped me feel more calm and then I was able to start cleaning and organizing. And giving myself grace. Projects will get done but more slowly than I want but progress happens. Progress not perfection.

Adorable.

Please watch the videos on anxiety and you can watch the ones on DBT, too. What thoughts come to your mind when you’re experiencing that? When has this started? Anxiety is the flee part of our Fight-Flight-Freeze-Fond response. What is the underlying fear. There are 6 basic fears that your threat response system is trying to protect you from: Rejection, isolation, failure, loss of control, the unknown and death. Which one do you think causes you to feel like you are in jail?

Does the feeling of disconnection go away?

@DocSnipes

Жыл бұрын

I am sorry you are experiencing that. When you feel like disconnecting, you can try grounding : Notice 5 things that you see , 4 things that you hear, 3 things that you smell, 2 things that you can feel (touch) and 1 thing that you taste. This helps you stay grounded in the present moment and distracts you from distressful thoughts that you may be experiencing and also helps with the feeling of disconnection.

🙏

My mom calls me lazy all the time but I just feel everyday like I have no reason to do anything or live. I'm ugly, I don't take care of myself, I don't have any friends. My hobby was to draw but that washed away as well. I just wanna evaporate rn

It can be hard, but try to find a new hobby to focus on. Maybe a club or group that shares your interest in the new hobby. Just a for instance, if you joined group that did bird watching... you could learn about birds on your own, and go to places and groups the focused on bird watching. Would give chance for something to focus on, and chance to make new friends.

That’s me
