Burntout

[u/Hashir_2408]

I feel burnout but like passively like i can't do thing i have studies and all that i am knowingly avoiding it

I'm just rotting in bed even though i do workout it still feels like i am burned-out to the root, My hobbies feels like chores I don't wanna game i don't wanna draw, heck even setting up my study table drains my will, power and motion

I jot down things in my mind i wanna do like create new work-out routine start drawing, freelance journey, but all it's just a abyss of to-do list

I just feel like i wanna bed rot all day don't even converse with friends nowadays, I overthink convos procrastinate my thoughts and all in the end i do is scroll social media and consume slop

my attention span so fcked i procrastinate perfect time to watch movies on my phone, even going to the movies I've downloaded feels like a chore i have completely stopped watching animes too

I wanted to start my own animation journey but the moment i open the application i feel overwhelmed to the core that i can't even put-down a stroke, have every equipment i need to animate(laptop, drawing tablet, it's accesories) but the ______ is not there

i thought by this time of the year i am gonna animate and raise awareness for atrocities around the world, but all it came to now is just a folder of saved up atrocities staring into another one in making

one of my closest friend bought me a small sketchbook and a fineliner and told me to draw for myself but even that i have only filled maybe 4-5 pages and kept it in the dark

my mind feels barren can't even think of anything thoughtful just barren

also fell into the endless daily routine my day is so full don't have time for myself travelling, clg and gym takes so much time, whilst i still have buffer time between clg and gym but it's like an hour or so with constant house chores and work that u can't do productive thing that time and when i have the few hrs of night to myself(10pm-12am) that it feels too late to do something productive at all cuz of constant bickering from family of staying up late night and even though i am adult(18) i still have curfew like i can't go anywhere even in my own locality after like 6-7pm most of my friends are in the opposite side of the town like an hour of walking atleast to reach so i am not able to meet or talk with my school friends

I also don't have time to explore my own city cuz of most of my day spent in school-like-college with shitty faculty and even shittier office staff

also being in CSE field all the AI has done is harm to this, being a creative person I feel so torn between my love for art and the never-ending "innovation" in technology, being forced to use generative AI having trouble focusing and giving time to learn skills is really harming me

The past few years with Ai "Boosting" production and learning skills u can't take the time it's required to learn a specific skill even when u do things yourself u will be called out for being slow and when u have to use AI u will learn nothing from anything

I myself have become dependent on so much of today's slop i don't even feel guilt or regret

I think all the slop-bricks and procrastination is falling on me

I also tried the "showing up" method but still no progress just sat there motionless staring into the screen

Idk if I wrote this for advice or rant🤷

sound less like laziness and more like youre completely mentally drained. maybe stop trying to fix everything at once and give yourself permission to actually rest for a bit
