You’re Not Lazy, You’re Just Emotionally Overdrafted
You're not lazy. You're emotionally overdrafted.
If you’re waking up tired, canceling plans, doom-scrolling, and then beating yourself up for not being “productive enough,” you’re not broken—you’re burned out. Emotional exhaustion builds in quiet ways: saying yes when you mean no, holding space for everyone but yourself, pretending you're fine when you're anything but. This blog breaks down the myth of motivation, the truth about emotional rest, and why shame only deepens your exhaustion. If you’ve been stuck in survival mode, this is your permission to stop pushing and start repairing.
