Got to make sure you have opportunities for self care, time to recharge. Could you get a massage once a month or more frequently? Walk in the countryside. Swim or play a sport? What do you like doing?

Can you take some time off and focus on your mental well being?

@dpoet I have been there. I dug my way out, but I can absolutely sympathize with you. I’m really sorry.
In my case, I treated it like debt. The worst debt with the most interest got my undivided attention (which was getting out of a horrific and toxic relationship). Everything else came afterwards. Like I reduced my cost of living to take a pay cut to do something else. It’s been a phenomenal adventure and life has really been going well, except the occasional inevitable crisis of illness, injury or death of my loved ones
