Time is the one true currency why do you want to waste it? Learn to program or run linux but donr have the goal of i gotta learn this have the goal of i wanna learn this so so i do xyz fun thing with it. I mean u could always get a mindless job and u would be earning money that why ur productively wasting time. Learn to cook good food. Go touch grass and walk hell just go have a shower and go stand in the sun. Work out doesnt need to be much. Let yourself get bored let yourself reflect and think escapism leads to hate leads to suffering leads to alcoholism leads to the dark side.
Make urself a checklist of thing to do every day. Not goals to achieve but things to do that will slowly work u towards those goals. Then aim to do more than yesterday dont stress it if u fail as long as u did soenthing.
As Jordan Peterson would say go clean up ur room and make your bed.
I'm a software engineer. I make really good money. I'm off work this week, but then next week, and also the weekends.
I run every day
This actually is the problem for me. Running and working out actually help. But it only kills a couple hours, and then if I do more it's not healthy and I'll injure myself.
Are you shitting me? You're quoting jordan peterson?
Is it burnout? Have you felt changes during vacations 3 weeks+? If you can afford it, maybe ask your employer for two or three months off unpaid, if you sell it as burnout prevention, it should also be in his interest.
Then get some sleep medication and do what your body tells you to.
I've told my manager that I'm having issues. I don't actually want to take time off because work is a pretty decent way to pass the time. But I'm not in a mental space to focus at my usual level. So I think I've got that covered
