How can I regain motivation for my hobbies after a stressful new job?

[Joe917]

I started a new job 3 months ago, and I've completely lost motivation in doing anything but laying in bed, and looking at my phone on my free time. I think its because my job has made me incredibly stressed to the point where I just can't focus on anything but my job, even on my day off.

What are your hobbies? Sports etc?

The job is not going to pay you more bcoz you allow it to stress you , drop things back a few levels at work , take it easy , say Sabai Sabai.

Write yourself an agenda for the days off , what time out of bed and what you want to achieve that day , stock to it , remember stress is really unhealthy.

Well, I'll say your brain 🧠 is already seeing work as exhausting.. that's why people should always do something they love doing.. If this feeling keeps getting worse or lasts for several months, it might be worth checking in with a doctor or therapist, since ongoing burnout or depression can look like this too.

What kind of job. I mean did it trap you inside intellectualizing all day? Like not a physically demanding job?

Job that required rigid intellect detached from feelings?
