Burnout

Is burnout a thing even after taking annual leave? I’ve been back 2 days and I feel so low and stressed. DP has had recent health issues which haven’t helped and we have been TTC for 2 years without success. Everywhere I look there is pregnancy and that doesn’t help. I’m keeping a brave face for DP’s sake but I just feel completely drained. Not sure what I want from this but there we go.

It's very common, unfortunately taking holiday leave doesn't do much long-term for burnout. Have you tried speaking to DP? I know we naturally want to put on a brave face but being vulnerable can help, even if it's just a bit of extra support he can give you.
