If you&amp;rsquo;re zapped for energy and not able to recharge with consistent, quality, sleep, you could end up feeling totally spent and empty.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;A Harvard University expert said that &amp;ldquo;neuroimaging and neurochemistry studies suggest that a good night&#39;s sleep helps foster both mental and emotional resilience, while chronic sleep deprivation sets the stage for negative thinking and emotional vulnerability.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Translation? If you&amp;rsquo;re not sleeping enough, your brain will have a much harder time helping you navigate life&amp;rsquo;s ups and downs.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

You struggle to find a moment in the day for yourself and it feels like no matter how much you do in a day&amp;mdash;your list of to-dos is endless. No matter how much you sleep, you still&amp;nbsp;wake up exhausted. Over time, you feel so run down that you actually stop feeling much else at all&amp;mdash;you start to feel empty.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

At first, you were excited about the challenge but after weeks of &amp;ldquo;putting your nose to the grindstone,&amp;rdquo; you&amp;rsquo;ve lost your enthusiasm. You&amp;rsquo;re so overtired that you just feel totally &amp;ldquo;blah&amp;rdquo; about your job and your life.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Here are a few questions to ask yourself as you&amp;rsquo;re working through the process:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul id=&quot;mntl-sc-block_40-0&quot; class=&quot;comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html&quot;&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Do I need more support from my partner, family, friend, or neighbour? Do I want to talk to someone &amp;ldquo;neutral&amp;rdquo;, like my doctor or a mental health provider?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Have my goals changed? (E.g., work, school, life)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Are my children&amp;rsquo;s activities requiring more than I have to give right now? (E.g., lots of driving)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Do I have health concerns that need a lot of management? Am I feeling overwhelmed by taking care of myself?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Is my job asking too much of me? Is a volunteer project or hobby more than I can take on on top of my work responsibilities?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Do I feel like it&amp;rsquo;s time to make a big change at school or work? (E.g., pursuing a different major/degree, looking for a new job, reducing work hours)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p id=&quot;mntl-sc-block_42-0&quot; class=&quot;comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;When you&amp;rsquo;re thinking about these questions, try not to get upset if you find that the answer to one or more of them is stopping. &amp;ldquo;Quitting&amp;rdquo; is not a sign of weakness&amp;mdash;it can be a sign that you&amp;rsquo;re aware of and acknowledge that you&amp;rsquo;re human and you have limits. Honoring your personal &amp;ldquo;bandwidth&amp;rdquo; is necessary for taking care of your physical and mental well-being.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3 id=&quot;mntl-sc-block_51-0&quot; class=&quot;comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-subheading&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;mntl-sc-block-subheading__text&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;What to Do If Being Exhausted Is Making You Feel Empty Inside&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p id=&quot;mntl-sc-block_52-0&quot; class=&quot;comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;It can be hard to put on the brakes, but feelings of emptiness and exhaustion are a big &amp;ldquo;stop sign&amp;rdquo; which means it&amp;rsquo;s time for some self-care. Here are a few things to try to do when you&amp;rsquo;re burnt out:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul id=&quot;mntl-sc-block_54-0&quot; class=&quot;comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html&quot;&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Ask for help&amp;nbsp;(be it from a partner, your friends, a neighbor, and/or a mental health professional)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Try to see what you can get &amp;ldquo;off your plate&amp;rdquo; (e.g., reduce your workload, look for caregiver respite, have someone help you with errands or household chores)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Create&amp;nbsp;boundaries&amp;nbsp;and stick to them (e.g., stop checking emails and your phone at a set time at night; go to bed and wake up at the same time no matter what day it is).&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Find calming things to make a part of your day (e.g., deep breathing exercises,&amp;nbsp;a meditation practice)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p id=&quot;mntl-sc-block_111-0&quot; class=&quot;comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Focusing on self-care, doing activities that lift up your sense of well-being, and reaching out to others for support to get you through this time until things settle down might be all you need to do. Once the challenge has passed, you&amp;rsquo;ll probably start feeling better and more like yourself once the dust settles (and you&amp;rsquo;ll likely feel relief, too).&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p id=&quot;mntl-sc-block_113-0&quot; class=&quot;comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;However, if you&amp;rsquo;re not tying your feelings of emptiness to a specific event or the sense of nothingness in your life is not going away or is getting worse, reaching out to a professional is the next step you want to take.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p id=&quot;mntl-sc-block_115-0&quot; class=&quot;comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;You might start by talking to your doctor, who can either recommend treatment or refer you to a mental health provider to talk about how you&amp;rsquo;re feeling and figure out what support you need.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p id=&quot;mntl-sc-block_117-0&quot; class=&quot;comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Remember: Asking for help is not a sign that you &amp;ldquo;can&amp;rsquo;t handle life&amp;rdquo; or that you&amp;rsquo;re &amp;ldquo;weak.&amp;rdquo; It&amp;rsquo;s not easy to be honest with yourself and others about how you&amp;rsquo;re feeling, but doing so is one of the strongest things you can do.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p id=&quot;mntl-sc-block_119-0&quot; class=&quot;comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Acknowledging your feelings of emptiness is the first step, so congratulations if you&amp;rsquo;ve taken that step.

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Face it:&lt;/strong&gt; everyone has a hole or two in his or her life, though for some it&amp;rsquo;s a pin hole while for others it&amp;rsquo;s a chasm.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Perhaps you long for something or someone you&amp;rsquo;ve lost. Maybe someone failed to return your affection. Do you wish you had something you lack? Perhaps you expected a promotion but did not receive it. Did you make a mistake you wish you could undo? Does your life somehow not live up to your dreams?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h4&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The list is endless. The result is one or more holes in your life.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h4&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;So, what can you do about it?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Most people probably ignore it if possible or &amp;ldquo;stuff&amp;rdquo; it away in the hopes that time will heal all wounds, but this can also lead to other issues if the matter is left unresolved. Then some call it &amp;ldquo;baggage&amp;rdquo;&amp;mdash;issues that may weigh your future down if you let them. Besides, smart and wise people will see this issue looming through your behavior even if you try to hide it.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h4&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;A better option may be to acknowledge the hole in your life and admit it to yourself. Some such gaps can be addressed. Others must simply be accepted.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h4&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;Which are you carrying around?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Professionals often confuse their self-worth with their work and how they are seen in the workplace. Being passed over for a promotion can feel like a personal insult. Being fired can be a huge blow to your ego. Seeing others grow and progress when you are standing still is immensely frustrating. Sometimes, work that seemed so rewarding earlier in your career suddenly seems shallow and irrelevant.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h4&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;In all these cases, reexamining your career path is a healthy response.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h4&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
