Strange physical effects of burnout

Post Reply New Topic

I'm more of a shutdown person than a burnout, but I guess they overlap. I'm curious if anyone out there experiences unusual physical symptoms with a burnout/meltdown recovery.

Apart from the usual (for me) deep fatigue, lack of motivation, incoherent speech I have a permanent bitter taste in my mouth and my right leg is going crazy, jittering all day. (I'm usually a finger stimmer, and this leg business is not pleasant.) Not sure if this is burnout related or something I should pursue medically. Doctor says I have anxiety. The go-to diagnosis when you haven't a clue.

So just curious if anyone experiences odd symptoms with their burnouts.
