Dear burnout diary
March 25, 2014: I am at the office, overwhelmed with work. There are
many challenges to overcome and lots of stress to face. I haven't
exercised for weeks or had a proper night of sleep for several days, but I
don't even seem to mind because I am obsessed with my business'
performance. I have ambitious targets to reach, and this is the only
thing that matters to me. At home I also open the computer, and
continue tasks after dinner and when the family has gone to bed.
Lately, I feel my energy level drop. I can hardly find the strength to walk
a few meters and ask for help. I don’t feel good. Call an ambulance! I
collapse on the ground. My arms and legs do not respond anymore. My
colleagues gather all around me, freaking out. I can hardly breathe. I
feel like the air around me weighs as heavy as the Himalaya, and it’s
crushing my chest from all around.
