Re:How long is long enough to recover from burnout? by JohnFen on Friday January 12, 2024 @04:09PM (#38974111)
> In your experience how much time off was enough time off to recover from burnout?

I'm only speaking of myself and the people I personally know who have suffered burnout. The first thing is that time off all by itself isn't sufficient. You have to actively do things to fix the problem.

That said, amongst myself and my burned-out friends, the amount of time between beginning to address the problem and when we could work effectively again ranged from 1-5 years.
