I’ve been working client facing for about 10 years now so I’ve had to learn to make sure I’m very self aware! If I feel compaction fatigue coming on I chat to my boss (I’m thankful to have a great one at the moment!) and I make sure I schedule my day with breaks and time to process before and after!
It’s a big learning and it’s forever changing, but I’m still not great at it, that’s why I’m still searching to see if I can stay in these roles. Because burn out is something I feel I’m constantly struggling with. Flexibility with days from home if I can and I essentially don’t do much those days either.
I’ve tried everything haha! I’m doomed to want to help, but struggle to carry the load!

Thank you for sharing! I have my two cats who I adore and they can often be the light you need!

😭🫶🏻 thank you! Late diagnosed too! I’m keen to look around and see what’s on offer!

I’m so sorry to hear that sounds really difficult, but thank you for sharing! I hope you’re getting any rest!
