Self Portraiture exploring themes of burnout and coping mechanisms.

A reflection on self-medication and the idea of attempting to push through burnout. Often the only solution to feeling incapable of something is to remvoe yourself from it and come back later. A concept at opposition to the capalistic idealogy of simply "working harder" and "not giving up".
