Depending on where you live, you might be legally entitled to sick leave, or something similar.
I know this option isn't available to everyone, but I still wanted to point it out.
> There's no other jobs that won't have me just as burned out in a few months, and the idea of searching for one is tiresome already.
I think it's dangerous to assume that once you've burned out, changing jobs will solve the problem.
In my own case, once I passed the burn-out point, removing all of the causal factors that lead me beyond that point did not cause me to return from beyond that point.
The only thing I could suggest is to talk to a physician, who will then suggest the proper course of action -- be it medication, therapy, exercise, diet, a combination thereof, etc.
