Thought it was burned out. The body was protesting. 🥺🤒💊

✍️ Are other writers the same?

During the heaviest fiction, we used to sit on a table for 12-18 hours.

Think of a plot...

Untie the chapter...

Answer comments...

Cut the promotional clip...

And then come back and fix the original.

Until one day I started to feel...

🫠 Neck pain

🫠. Back pain.

🫠 brain

🫠 Easy to get frustrated.

🫠 ADHD, even though I wrote for hours.

At first I thought, "We're not diligent enough."

But when you notice yourself, it's sometimes not a fire in writing.

But the body is signaling "tired."

So I started to pay more attention to health lately.

Walk periodically

Drink enough water.

Try to sleep more.

Although still imperfect, but the brain is clearer

Therefore want to invite to talk 😊

Who's like this?

What are the symptoms of everyone working or writing a novel, and how to take care of themselves?

Want to try to deploy as well 💛

... Read moreจากประสบการณ์ส่วนตัว การนั่งทำงานหรือเขียนนิยายนาน ๆ มากกว่าครึ่งวันโดยไม่พักบ่อย ๆ นอกจากจะทำให้เกิดอาการปวดคอ ปวดหลัง และสมองตื้อแล้ว ยังส่งผลต่อสุขภาพจิตด้วย ทำให้รู้สึกหงุดหงิดง่ายและมีสมาธิสั้นลง สิ่งที่สำคัญคือการเรียนรู้ที่จะฟังสัญญาณจากร่างกาย ว่าความเหนื่อยนี้ไม่ใช่แค่หมดไฟในการทำงาน แต่เป็นการประท้วงจากร่างกายที่ต้องการการดูแล ในช่วงที่มีงานเขียนหนักที่สุด ผมเริ่มกลับมาให้ความสำคัญกับการพักระหว่างวัน ลุกเดินบ้าง หรือยืดเส้นยืดสายบ้างทุก 1-2 ชั่วโมง เพื่อช่วยรีเฟรชกล้ามเนื้อและเพิ่มการไหลเวียนเลือด นอกจากนี้การดื่มน้ำเป็นสิ่งจำเป็นมาก เพราะน้ำช่วยให้สมองทำงานได้ดีขึ้นและลดอาการเหนื่อยล้าได้ การนอนหลับพักผ่อนให้เพียงพอก็เป็นอีกหนึ่งปัจจัยสำคัญที่หลายคนมองข้าม เมื่อร่างกายได้พักเต็มที่ สมองจะฟื้นฟูและพร้อมรับมือกับงานใหม่ อีกทั้งการดูแลสุขภาพจิต เช่น การฝึกสมาธิหรือทำกิจกรรมผ่อนคลาย ก็ช่วยลดความเครียดและเพิ่มโฟกัสในการทำงาน สิ่งที่อยากแนะนำเพิ่มเติมคือ การตั้งเวลาการทำงานแบบมีระเบียบ เช่น การใช้เทคนิค Pomodoro ที่แบ่งการทำงานเป็นรอบสั้น ๆ มีช่วงพักกลาง ทำให้ยังสามารถรักษาความต่อเนื่องแต่ไม่เหนื่อยเกินไป และยังช่วยเพิ่มประสิทธิภาพ สุดท้าย อยากชวนทุกคนที่ทำงานหนักเหมือนกัน ลองสังเกตตัวเองและจัดสรรเวลาสำหรับดูแลสุขภาพให้มากขึ้น เพราะความสำเร็จในการทำงานไม่ได้อยู่แค่ที่ความขยัน แต่รวมถึงการรักษาร่างกายและจิตใจให้พร้อมด้วยเช่นกัน

A circular diagram titled "7 Types of Stress and signs of overwhelm" by Susan Chen. It features a person at a desk engulfed in flames, symbolizing burnout. The diagram categorizes stress into occupational, financial, emotional, environmental, psychological, social, and physical, with examples for each type.

Stress doesn’t only come from work. Sometimes it’s: * lack of sleep * constant noise * financial pressure * toxic relationships * comparison * overtraining * decision fatigue * emotional suppression * people-pleasing * overstimulation The problem is… When stress stays unaddress
