I used to think taking mental health days was for people who couldn't handle pressure. Last year, I hit a wall with anxiety and had to take time off. That break showed me how important it is to care for my mind. Now I schedule regular check-ins with myself. Has anyone else found a routine that helps prevent burnout?
I used to think family fights were just normal noise. Seeing him shut down showed me the real hurt it causes. Now I try to check in before things blow up.
