I also am suffering from something similar. I have the working theory it's from extreme burnout but do not know for sure. I would tremendously appreciate if you

  It’s hard to say what actually helped, but I tried a bunch of behavioral changes. Two I’ve stuck with are significantly increased exercise (half an hour plus of intense exercise every day) and a strict ketogenic diet. Even if they didn’t do anything at all for my primary condition, they’ve resulted in totally orthogonal improvements to my life. A couple months of rest (didn’t have much choice there - I couldn’t do anything else). I also used nicotine gum as a behavioral reinforcement drug to help “rehabilitate” myself on the way back to health, and THC to help me sleep. FWIW, I think it’s unlikely my problem was burnout - I had a number of viral-characteristic physiological symptoms such as digestive problems, coughing, and heart palpitations, and I would be surprised if they had a purely neurochemical cause - but in either case hopefully some of these behaviors could help.
