There was this discussion about recovering from burnout a while back. Perhaps it can help: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33260525 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33260525 But I can fully understand you, I don't think I completely burned out, but I was somewhere along the spectrum. I was, and am, in a priviledged situation where I can afford to take some months of work. Initially it did not feel like it helped all that much, but on later reflection it at least "stopped the bleeding". I am in a better place now a year or two later, but my perspective on work has probably changed forever.
