I hope the treatment is working for you! I have treatment resistant anxiety/depression, and ADHD. I've burnt out a number of times at work - normally short durations thankfully, but last time it landed me in the hospital. On the bright side, I got into an rTMS trial that worked really well for me - within a week I was feeling sooooo much better.
Regarding goals: I'm really trying to not be so work driven, but it is still hard. I'm a terrible people pleaser, which makes having firm work boundaries hard. I'm trying to counterbalance with some more robust "personal care" goals I guess you could say - with some of those being more around appreciating the everyday vs bigger, more distant career, house etc...goals

Finding the time to do nothing is essential to reassessing who we are and who we want to be. by IAI_Admin
