Feeling Burned Out: Isolation or Socializing?

I'm so burned out from my job. I can't keep putting on a happy, 'functioning', social persona every single day, it's so tiring. I think more and more to myself every day that becoming a hermit wouldn't be so bad. Does anyone else feel this way?

YES. I really really really just wish I could stay at home and not have to over-exert myself on a daily basis to live in poverty anyways. I definitely feel like working worsens my symptoms & my mental state & then I spend my days off incredibly burnt out and overwhelmed just to turn around and do it all over again. It's so freaking hard to hide symptoms and be professional 40+ hours a week
