Often, people experiencing burnout don’t know how to/feel they can’t stop being productive lest people, ‘find out,’ they’re burnt out, which leads to ever-worsening symptoms and takes longer to recover from.

I am one of many people who has worked and contributed to OSS while experiencing burnout, and I would love to share my experience and the things I’ve learned in order to help my fellow open source contributors and improve the overall open source community for the better.
