Hi @Former-Member
Is it okay to come on??
Burnout - I think i suffered burnout a few months ago when I ended up in a mental health unit for 3 weeks just before xmas.
And i am not too sure if i am heading for another due to having to work, selling our home of 14 yrs and then working out where to live, pack and actually move. and that's not including my own mental health. so many triggers aren't helping. Also have my mother in law who lived with us for 20 yrs move out into a nursing home last year with dementia. so even that is hard.
For me i think i need time out when i get like this. i know my own body. actually today i went to see my GP and started to cry and said to him "i don't know why i am crying" and he turned around and said "it's because you are so stressed". so looks like another chat with my psych in a few weeks time.
