How did I last this long?
Content notice: Mention of suicidality and depression for the whole thing.

I Got Promoted While Feeling Like a Failure from Burnout
After overworking myself in 2020, feeling like a failure when I crashed from my burnout at the end of the year, I earned a promotion and have found a renewed sense of hesitant motivation, despite still feeling like a failure.

Let's look at January: books I read, music I enjoyed, games I played, mental health struggles, and my accomplishments.
