Use Your Social Network

Too much time on social media can increase your burnout. But social connection can help you heal from it. The key is to connect with people directly instead of through a news feed or dashboard.

Check in with your friends and loved ones. Take time to hear what's going on in their lives. This can help prevent the isolated feelings that come with burnout. And, of course, get a listening ear for your own struggles, as well.

But, keep in mind that your friends are not a substitute for therapy. Everyone needs to vent sometimes, but be sure you are also taking steps to process your feelings. Work to find healthy ways to cope.
