First of all priorities things. Focus on one thing at a time.

The first step is to take a pause and prioritize self-care. It’s essential to recognize that burnout is a signal—not a personal failure.
Speaking up and saying "I need some help with this"
When I started letting others step in, it actually brought some relief.
You are losing energy everyday but not working on gaining or increasing energy. Focus on good lifestyle habits, learn the art of tapping spiritual energy to keep yourself full of enthusiasm. Lots of people are facing the same problem, that's why I'm working on a mental health startup. You can connect with me if you need initial guidance. I'm happy to help.
For me, I've started taking a 60-minute morning walk without my phone. It helps me relax and prevents me from feeling overwhelmed in the morning, which would otherwise impact my whole day.
My advice is to start by setting clear boundaries—know when to step away and protect your downtime. Taking regular breaks, even just a few minutes to stretch or breathe, can really help prevent burnout. I’ve also found that breaking tasks into smaller steps makes everything feel more manageable. Finally, don’t hesitate to ask for support if you need it; sometimes talking things out can make a world of difference.
Give immediate break! Take a vacation 2-3 weeks. Come back fully restored :)
