Work + Life Balance

I’ve been sick this whole week. BP been off and on normal, high normal, and stage 1 hypertension.

Sore throat, coughing, phlegm, etc.

Marketing team has been trying to push really hard to launch something but kept getting hit with roadblocks and I’m the only dev, lead dev, supporting them and we finally got it launched. I told my manager that after we launch i’m knocking out because I’ve been sick.

Went out to lunch with my wife and kids, came home then crashed till end of work day. 

I need to find a way of handling this work life balance because it’s all work and stress for me lately. 

I’m not looking ti make life changing FU money in crypto, but i’m certain I’ll have enough for 2 years worth of emergency money. That’s what I’m planning for.

Oh yeah, even my mom mentioned that i looked skinnier. My face looks more gaunt and aging. It’s all the stress. She usually tells me I look chubbier but this time the opposite. She also seen how much I’m on calls and on the computer when I picked my parents up the previous month. 

I really wish it wasn’t like this. Hustling and working is fine, but I’m just less motivated and burnt out at my age yet I always feel obligated.
