46-year-old

I am tired. I have no energy. Overweight. Sleep and exercise deficient. My marriage turned cold. I lost track of my goals and children's education and development. My house is in disarray. It seems like the only thing I do is work. I am pressured to be highly productive in my work. You see, I was furloughed for 2 weeks last May. I was the only one full-time physical therapist in that predicament because I was told I was the least efficient. I admit procrastination in completing the charting due to school work and my disdain of charting itself. I would rather talk to my patients than charting while at their home. I am burnt out. I graduated from my tDPT. I felt hopeful initially, but it quickly waned due to stress and demands that have nothing to do with physical therapy.

There are so many things I want to accomplish this coming year but I lack the energy to initiate.  I am overwhelmed.
