Start talking to your team/management and plan for a longer break asap. Try to be required as less as possible.
Do nothing work-related for a while ( as much as possible), so you don't feel stressed.
Counter point of view: if one of your devs had this, what would you want them to do? Is your position to that transferable to your upper management?
Good luck man. Had it too and kept working.
What happened to me: After work i went straight to bed and back up to work ( i seriously reduced after work requirements, which was okayish to do since i mostly plan for being able to take a break). Took 2-3 months since i didn't want to go off my full-time work, as the overload happened in combination after hours...
Fyi, going straight to bed was the first 2 weeks and then it slowly improved. "Broke" after deadlines and where the 2 words went in serious overdrive for a while due to unforeseen circumstances ( 19 hours/day for 4-5 months).
