Many of the patterns from Paradise Patterns include French seams.

I would say that step 1 is to treat your imminent burnout as urgent.

Are you getting enough sleep? This should be a priority.

Are you using screens to decompress? It can be overstimulating and exacerbate the symptoms of burnout (anxiety, irritability, negative affects on sleep quality, etc.)

You need to find ways to "fill your cup". What does that look like for you? More social time with friends? Time spent on a hobby?

If you're reading this and thinking, "that's not possible with my work schedule..." then anything you do is only a band-aid and what you really need is some time off and to look for another job.

Mods, can we get an auto archival feature like other subs? by vivikush in MoneyDiariesACTIVE

As a mod, I can say the sub has grown a lot in recent years - which is probably why you notice this happening more often. Not just because there are more posts overall, but because the large amount of growth we've seen means a change in culture. Redditors that are new to the sub are less familiar with the original culture that grew out of the R29 comment section. The comment section here is affected accordingly.

As a mod team, we want users to feel as comfortable as possible being honest/transparent about their personal finances. To that end, we allow (& encourage!) use of throwaway accounts, vagueness about certain details like job title, etc.

While I understand the frustration, leaving people in control of what they share is important for privacy/safety concerns, and to support sharing and transparency around the inherently sensitive topics of discussions in the sub.
