 Burnouts And How To Tackle?

This wasn't even the worst-case scenario just the most recent and as a college student or working individual I'm sure many experiences this and it's important to step back and acknowledge our body’s signs to take a break when required rather than push through until you can't lift a finger, there are ways to take care of burnout and keep our self in a health check.
