Burnout is entirely different and something I've only experienced once in my career. I was being asked to do too much on a job a few years ago. I actually broke down in tears in front of my series producer.
Burnout was me ending up in a psychiatric hospital for 12 weeks cause I couldn't go anywhere alone cause my anxiety was that bad.

I’ve experienced true burn out once in my life - it caused me to leave a job I’d worked YEARS to get into, took 2 months off any form of work, I had a full mental breakdown and have currently spent almost 2 years on antidepressants due to it.

Exactly! Burnout isn't just feeling a bit tired and needing a day off. Honestly, I hope anyone who does have experience of burnout is OK now because it isn't something you'd wish on anyone.

Slightly off topic, but Helen throwing the term around reminds me of when certain youtubers would talk about having anxiety and make informative videos without differentiating between feeling anxious and having an actual anxiety disorder/ being disproportionately anxious. Certain videos used to have loads of comments from younger viewers self diagnosing and thinking it was unusual to ever feel anxious about anything 🤦‍♀️ hopefully we've moved on from those days.

I'm going to 🤐 about it now because clearly this has pushed my buttons 😅
 
Haven't seen the video but from the run down of it, she's just stressed. No way near a burn out.

I wonder if she actually did any research on the word "burn out"....
Stress?
Depression?
Probably none of the above

Some influencers shouldn't post these kinds of videos without some kind of information about getting help etc due to having young followers.

All this video is, is that she having another moan, wanted to go out with her friends and not be a responsible adult.
 
Honestly I do think Helen is a deeply insecure person. I have this video on and I think she is really struggling and that this burn out is occuring because she doesn't enjoy this job anymore - which is why her content is so lazy. She really is embarrassing herself on the internet as she is the one presenting this to us, she doesn't have to include these images of her stuffing her face and talking, burping, even stuttering.
Her advice for recharging during lockdown is not a bad idea but it would be lovely if she used that time to learn or grow - read a book, or actually drawing on her iPad instead of tracing.

Its really frustrating that she doesn't wear a mask
Or wear a helmet
Her commands to her dogs are confusing.

I wouldn’t mind if she posted the video and just said I’m taking a break I’m struggling to come up with content ideas or I need some time to refresh/relax properly and most jobs have to take time off so I’ve decided now is the best time before things get back to normal (as normal as you can get after lockdown). I just don’t think you should use the term burn out so casually maybe exhausted or if she has spoken to a doctor/therapist and they’ve said that phrase then fine don’t need to justify it to us.

Totally agree with the content part though just wish she’d be more honest about it especially after being in this for so long compared to other creators. Also must be hard filming during lockdown if you aren’t in the right frame of mind to give out content you are proud of.
 
I feel like a bitch for saying it but I am livid at her making an entire video on "burn out" when she literally has total control over what she does every day and can take a day off whenever she chooses, start work whenever she chooses. What about us plebs with normal jobs who are expected to work long hours every single day for low pay, no rewards etc. What about the NHS workers who I'm sure embody the word "burnout" right now? It takes the absolute piss. I know everyone can experience it but when she's in so much more of a privileged position than most it's not fair to shout it around.

Oh and part of the cause of her burnout she claims is enjoying her new hobbies, doing up the garden and decorating her house. Wish I had the time and money to be burnt out by those things.

She should try working in a high school for a term.
 
I imagine she's that kind of a person who sees a motivational or life coaching post on Instagram and then tries to serve it as her own ideas without really looking into it before just to make herself look smart or give "advice". She's just so out of touch with the real world.
 
Gonna get a bit personal here but Helen's constant talk of burnout and how hard her work life is just makes me wanna vom. I've recently quit my old job and going self employed (so privileged to do this now considering covid) and let me tell you the difference on stress levels is insane.

I can pick when I want to work and my work day is mostly done by 3pm!

Helen- wait until gleam drop you for having even lower views and no brand deals coming in a few years and you'll actually have to do something else to support your purchasing of a million hoovers and ugly dresses. Then you'll know what a burn out is
 
Didn't she do a video like this about a month ago? I definitely won't be watching this. She's not even fun to watch anymore.
I’m definitely getting to the stage where I can’t watch her - it’s moving from a car crash I cant look away from to the sad decline of a human being that I feel like I shouldn’t be observing for my own entertainment. Having said that...

She looked like she was on gear in those bath shots. Her pupils looked massive and the behaviour was so odd
I just forwarded through the video to the bit where she’s in the bath and she‘s completely off her face. I’m going to guess part of the reason Phil is there is to make sure she doesn’t drown.

And if the bath is a bit too full, just empty it a bit, you fuckwit. Too stoned to work that out, too busy being quirky or really desperate for content. Or all 3?
 
I reckon the Aphetor stuff was pre-recorded ahead of time and will pop up properly in a few week/months.

Hopefully by then we’ll have repressed the images of her jiggling around in her too small bikini 😂 That’d be one thing to post if she was you know, on a beach, or she’d been swimming but it’s just so extra cringey and try hard prancing around filming it in her living room of all places.
yeah it just doesn't make sense. I'd understand if she'd just bought a hot tub or taken up wild swimming (both ideas I could get behind, I have a secret yen for a hot tub I'll be honest).
Also you can almost see right up her fanny in that video. I don't want to see that, ew.
 
I think some of the mullets that are around now can look cute with curly hair and the right styling. This however is on a whole other level.
