going during the day and alcohol to wind down at night, it may be time to take a good look at your life.
Take a daily break from technology. Go for a walk; step outside during your break; go out for lunch— and leave your phone on your desk.
Nourish your creative side. Play the guitar, piano or other musical instrument; paint or sculpt or carve; take up photography; keep a journal. Try something new or resume an old hobby.

Instead of: “I’m so stupid! I can’t do anything right!” Try: “I am a competent person. I will find a way to make this work.”
Talk to your doctor or a
therapist if needed. Te signs of burnout are also the symptoms of clinical depression.
Consider changing jobs if you are in a toxic work
environment. It’s an extreme solution, but may be the best one under certain circumstances.
Decide what you are going to do and act on it. Develop an action plan. Name your top three sources of stress and three things you need to delete from your life. Identify three things to add to your life and three specific changes you can make immediately. Set a timeline and stick to it!
You have a passion for what you do or you would not have chosen this field. It would be a shame to allow stress or burnout to ruin that for you. As a therapist, I myself had to make

Turf Burn Avoid Chloride-
Induced Why Producers Are Making the Switch to Protassium+
Many turf producers supply their turfgrass with fertilizers that contain high levels of potassium and chloride. While high potassium content is beneficial, high chloride content often leads to turf burn and increased stress. To avoid the detrimental effects of chloride, turf producers have turned to Protassium+™ premium sulfate of potash (0-0-50-17S), a premium K source with more to offer.
