I give so much of myself away every day that there is nothing left for me. Less then nothing. Every day I look into the mirror after working all my shifts and see less and less.

Till one day I won't even be there. Again.

I don't know what you do, so this may not help.

Sometimes the exhaustion is more habit and expectation. If you don't go home one day, do you have more energy? (Just answer to yourself.) Like one week you were exhausted, but then home became exhausting by habit.

It's so hard to do but if you do all the things you are planning on doing as soon as you get home then you can collapse into exhaustion. My wife is good at it. I'm terrible at it.
