Mental exhaustion does not necessarily occur in one fell swoop, but instead, it slowly accumulates over time. Being overworked, having too many responsibilities, or simply having too much going on in your life can cause you to reach an eventual boiling point, where your mind and body cannot cope anymore. This is when symptoms start to manifest.

where are you?

So how do we recover?

Find the time to relax:

Reduce sensory stimulation

Prioritize

Nice mytake. I think we all are either there or have been.
I'm there as I type. And have zero idea how to revive.
As a modern world we all are over stimulated. I try to have an hour of nothing but me listening to classical music and drink a cup of hot tea. It helps.

Great take and so true - For me time is the key mixed in with prioritize - We are all not lucky enough to take a six month break but you can rationalize it - I have an 8 hour shift today and tomorrow, say 10 hours with commute, to keep the house ticking (chores and cooking meals) over I have to do 3 hours a day THAT LEAVES you with 11 hours to chill or sleep.
Just an observation after the fact and a nod to drinking - Eat kinda healthy - You feel crap, you are the mood for comfort food/fast food - It feels good initially but often wears off very quickly and trying to digest a greasy mass with a pint of soda can interfere with sleep.

Great take. We need more awareness for mental health. :)
