why does resting make me feel guilty

Okay, so I just spent like, 3 hours chilling and doing absolutely nothing productive, and now I feel this intense guilt. Like, why? My brain is screaming 'you should be doing something! You're wasting time!' even though I'm literally so tired. Is this just me or is hustle culture really f-ing with us? How do you guys deal with this? 😩 #ToxicProductivity #BurnoutCulture #GuiltyForResting #GenZProblems

OMG fr! I thought it was just me! Every time I try to just exist, I feel like I'm falling behind or something. It's like my brain has been programmed to think productivity = worth. It's exhausting 😭

No cap, this is SO valid. We've been fed this narrative our whole lives that constant grinding is the only way to succeed. Blame late-stage capitalism and unrealistic social media standards imo. You're not alone, bestie. 🫂
