35. Almost the same position as you!

Personally, before doing anything else, I would take at least 3-4 weeks and have a proper break. It will take you at least 1-2 weeks to get out of “work mode”.

Stop thinking about work, ideas, the next thing, etc. Get off social media, HN, Reddit etc. Try and distance yourself from all of the things that may have contributed to the burnout in the first place.

I’d probably do some travel in that time - maybe a week or two going to a country I haven’t been to before.

Once I was back, I’d then start to consider my next move with (hopefully) a fresher and clearer mindset.
