How often do you deal with burnout, and how do you overcome it?

Burnout is something we all go through. How often would you guys say you deal with burnout? Maybe it's from a long day of work, or weeks and months of work that keeps weighing you down. When it comes to burnout for me, I often have to take a step back and just reassess the situation. I think we all need to take more breaks, especially when needed. I think jobs should require more breaks to help people recover from a long day of work.

But, how do you deal with burnout? Like I said, I like to take breaks when needed. Sometimes you need to take a day even. Take those mental health days if you need a break. More jobs are starting to understand that we need to deal with our own mental health once in a while and I think more jobs will start to implement more breaks and more PTO even.

Other things I find that helps is to take your mind off of your work. I will sometimes play video games, hang out with some friends on Discord and watch movies, or just relax with some YouTube. Or maybe I will take the day and rest.
