Glad you got out of that situation.

Burnout & depression suck. They're cycles that area easy to get stuck in and hard to get out of. When it comes to avoiding such situations in the future, therapy and personal boundaries are the tools I personally reach for, but recovery is a long journey. Don't let them drain you of the energy you need to make life worth living.

As a mentor told me, "Illegitimi non carborundum".



“Illegitimi non carborundum” means roughly “Don't let the bastards grind you down”.


Also "Nolite te Bastardes Carborundorum" as seen in The Handmaid's Tale.


Sounds more cognate with English
