Thanks for sticking with me. 💙I hope you're all doing well. James is still here playing Prance Prance Revolution. He'll go back to his channel eventually. 😂
i get that a lot actually. I'm studying film production and draw in my free time and have been at the brink of giving up by not having any motivation to continue several times already. Now i'm applying for a "forced internship" by my university and one recruiter wants especially passionate artists, a common trap set by companies to suck individuals out of any passion they have and work them to the bone, so be careful about that y'all
Perfect timing. I think I've been going through mild burnout these few days, and I've learned that it indeed can take a long time to recover from, not just a weekend of rest. I've been having a negative outlook and little to no motivation toward work. But resting and taking time for the things I enjoy or help me relax has helped.
First, we can tell you aren’t well. You sound tired and may need a break. We will completely understand and please don’t push yourself too hard. We support you 100%. Not just you Blocko, but your creator and team as well. Get well soon. 💙
i've been stuck in burnout for over 1 year and it's just getting worse with every day sadly. I went from the fastest student in my class to being the one that turned in homework the last every time. I wish talking to the teachers would help but after like 1000 attempts i have given up, this year i dig my grave and say goodbye to this abusive industry i wish good luck to everyone who is also stuck in burnout with no way out.
I find that loss in motivation is a lot like back pain, in some cases you sort of just need to push through it while making sure you are not pushing in such a way or intensity that you end up making it worse, in those cases it may be just the ups and downs of life and hopefully they will eventually sort themselves out. however in some cases the act of pushing through it will in itself make it worse and will eventually lead to burnout if that is the cases (ideally before burnout) you take some time evaluate what you are doing in your worklife. A lot of people have the subconscious misconceptions that things like procrastination, loss of motivation, fatigue and/or stress exist in a vacuum and just happen but that's usually not the case, this things are caused by you feeling something and can generally only get overcome by addressing and tackling them
I'm not an expert but I have experienced burnout far more times in my life then I should given how young I am and in past the limited amount of obligations I had, having a toxic work ethic is something that you at some point need to change or overcome
I found that when you take time and write out your thoughts or get lost in a drawing it helps listening to good music and taking a mental health day to yourself also is a great thing never stop believing in yourself though it’s tough but your good enough so don’t stress it at all
as a young social worker who just got in to her field I've already experienced it, i was working health care during the first wave of Covid-19 and it sucked i was working around the clock and going to school so I had to step back from working so much and focus on finishing my degree it sucks burn out sucks and i hate it, it can go dye in whole lol
Welcome back James missed u glad your getting back on track we understand take all the time u need take care of your self I experience this last year and year before
I know it has ben more than half a year now, but I hope YOU are doing well now. I work in the old man asilum and I had to witness over two dozens of those patients passing away under my hands. Yes, about 5 of them only because of Covid. Meanwhile I got Covid too and almost did not make it. At that time I felt completely burned out, I wanted to quit. But my colegues and even your videos helped me get over it.. Thank you for your videos and don't be nervous when you dont make your videos regularly. Your well beying is not worth it.
With burnout you just need sheer force of will, and things that don't have time to be skipped further. So, you are forced to continue, and you have less time to think about how burned out you are. Though that is mentally straining it works.
I do writing as a side gig and burnout happens more than I'd like to admit. A lot of it stems from being tired of certain projects, or just not feeling like I can write the right things in the hopes of getting published. I combat this weekly by taking a day to do zero writing.
The last time i got burnout was when i am making a custom game from my grade 9 multimedia semester 1 final test I use the wrong code making everything broken
Please... My burnout after a year university during pandemic laster almost a year. I am not even kidding. I started to feel it around January (mid academic year) last year and it just started to get better.
I think I may be going through burnout right now. Lots of things have been happening for the past 6 months and I've done very many things so it feels really overwhelming and the feeling is kind of constant.
Life noggin you can take all the time you need. We care about you and really don’t want you to be hurt because of us. Burn out can really be bad and I know that from experience. Just you should be taking more breaks you send out videos so frequently and it satisfies many people but that can effect you really badly.
Hey Noggin, what if you outsourced your animating to your fans every now and then? That would make the work easier and the art style new and refreshing for the new year! Btw, I hope that you continue to be able to manage your health. Take care, my good man.
Had this happen to me but I wish I knew how it was effecting me. It went way too far. I did quit tho it was awful there and now work somewhere way better 😁 (for anyone that thinks I did the wrong I did try to talk to my boss to see eye to eye what they were doing that was effecting me but she pretty much didnt care and continued doing so.)
I feel like I’ve been burn out since 2015 or so. Well i got better but then covid happened. And the funny thing is i haven’t had a permanent job since 2017.
Seems like you AND your animator are having a bit of a down season. Good to know you guys are doing ok. Edit: Didn't realize this was at the beginning of the year.
Yeah, burnout can be a serious problem. Take some time for yourself, Blocko, and get some rest. Please remember to always wear your seatbelt, keep on thinking, and as I'll say... Keep on Patrolling.
I've experienced a lot of burnout, being a student, all the stress about tests, exams, and big projects can be really bad. I recall one recent time, and I mean really recent, like in December recent, the night before a big math test, I had a huge breakdown of stress and anxiety, and got almost no sleep over it, it was so bad I actually felt my vanes pulsing. My eyes were bloodshot red in the morning. I was absolutely miserable during the day, especially during math class, it was horrible. I had a really bad 2021, a lot of family members died, so I was already going through greaving, and in addition the stress and anxiety of school. It was really bad.
I hope things are going better for you. if not now, it'll eventually be. when you are at rock bottom, the only way left is up. I truly wish you all the best dude, from across the world.
Dang felt that on a personal level...No pressure Blocko! We've been patiently waiting for this vid and will continually be patient for the rest💖 Nice collab with James btw
No need to apologize for the lack of videos… It’s OK to get burnt out sometimes, Just please please please make sure you’re taking really good care of yourself and taking time for yourself. It’s important to have time for yourself and not overdo things. Anyways, I hope you’re doing well and staying as safe as you possibly can :-) also, two of my favorite UA-camrs doing a video together is just the best thing ever!! It was my senior year of high school and I had several assignments on the same day and my English teacher told us that if we didn’t do all of our assignments the night before she would flunk us immediately, so I had absolutely no choice but to pull an all nighter. The next day I was so so very burnt out that I literally felt sick all School day, but I couldn’t go home because no one believed me and hold me just to tough it out… I felt so sick that it even just hurt to stand up and walk. That night when I got home from school I would not eat anything and I barely got any sleep that night.
Thank you I didn't think about it but I'm completely burnt out. This making me realize this makes me feel a little better atleast. More of just being human instead of a failure.
Rest well, my dude, make sure you don’t burn the candle on both ends. Don’t work yourself if you don’t feel happy with what you have, and if it means you have to space stuff out a bit more, or even take a break, then please do. Rest well, dude, and take care of yourself. And, if this does help, here’s a few tips I’ve learned for myself while being a college student. Number one: set your hours. For example, I don’t start working until after 9 am, so I know my brain is at the best peak, and keep working til dinner. If you set strict times for yourself, when you work and when you don’t, you feel better because then instead of working until you can’t, you work until the time is up. Find the best times for you, and work with those. Number two, napping. Naps can be some of the best things to do when you’re on your hourly lunch break. Even taking some time just to lay down and close your eyes helps; it helps your brain process what you’ve done and what you need to do, and leaves you feeling more refreshed. And number three, buffers. We all hate it when we wanna do something, but feel there isn’t enough time in the day. How I cope is by starting on it early; it leaves me more time to stick with my rest schedule, and I have more wiggle room, so I’m less likely to leave work feeling I didn’t get enough done.
Hi blocko its ok ur not uploading im still proud of you i sometimes get that and i dont want to do anything in one whole week please be well soon :) I love you blocko and im just a teen boy love the vids please do stuff that your passionate love you so so much please have a happy new year
We've been in a constant state of burnout since some time in 2020, and we haven't had a job since our mom told our newspaper distributor - without telling us - that we quit. We had to find out when we started asking where the papers we had to deliver were… And we were 20 at the time. We're now 35, turning 36 in the summer. So burnout isn't exclusive to working. Maybe we're just depressed…? We dunno… It seems more like burnout to us…
I've experienced it sometimes, one time it got so bad that I questioned my whole existence like "do I even matter?" Or "Why am I here?" Then I stopped and continued to be great and at that day I know now what's it like to be depressed, have y'all experienced it too? If y'all did here's a message: "don't believe I the bad thoughts you already have seen the bad thoughts look at the good thoughts, don't listen to the depression listen to the hope.
I can’t even imagine what sonic team and co went through developing sonic 3 it was only a few weeks before a November deadline for whatever the game was still a unfinished glitchy mess and the game was going to come out in just 5 MONTHS
I’m a medical student and I’m so burnt out from studying for exams, I lost all my muscles from 1.5 years of gym and I’ve got purple stretch marks from gaining so much fat so quickly. I’m also struggling to remember things and I feel no pleasure from life besides from eating or sleeping. Its sad, but I have two weeks left before I finish this exam.
Hey im also going through burn out but im in high school and cant seem to focus on my studies all friend are better than me in getting grades and I have stopped everything from watching anime to practicing art (I wanna be a mangaka when I grow up) but i still get low grades and at this point i just dont want to dissapoint my parents any advice Help a brudha out🙏🙏.
Yes, I'm experiencing burnout and I didn't knew about it, I had to go to therapy as I was often more depressed and wasn't aware why. Just recognizing it was burnout helped a lot, taking the load of helps a ton
When I had massive burnout I asked my boss to switch to a 4 days/week 10 hour schedule for a couple weeks, so I could just have time to chill. I actually took that additional day on Wednesdays, so I'd only work 2 days in a row at any point. It worked very well.
Thanks for sticking with me. 💙I hope you're all doing well.
James is still here playing Prance Prance Revolution. He'll go back to his channel eventually. 😂
Go enjoy yourself
Ya deserve breaks as well
pog
enjoy every time you want, we will wait no matter what :>
Has he gone Back yet
i get that a lot actually. I'm studying film production and draw in my free time and have been at the brink of giving up by not having any motivation to continue several times already. Now i'm applying for a "forced internship" by my university and one recruiter wants especially passionate artists, a common trap set by companies to suck individuals out of any passion they have and work them to the bone, so be careful about that y'all
Perfect timing. I think I've been going through mild burnout these few days, and I've learned that it indeed can take a long time to recover from, not just a weekend of rest. I've been having a negative outlook and little to no motivation toward work. But resting and taking time for the things I enjoy or help me relax has helped.
Omg i really hope u feel better soon mate
I have experienced burnout before but i dont remember much about it , except for the fact that it was pain
First, we can tell you aren’t well. You sound tired and may need a break. We will completely understand and please don’t push yourself too hard. We support you 100%. Not just you Blocko, but your creator and team as well.
Get well soon. 💙
Definitely experiencing burnout at work right now. Feeling apathetic or just outright negative and can't focus are the major issues. :s
i've been stuck in burnout for over 1 year and it's just getting worse with every day sadly. I went from the fastest student in my class to being the one that turned in homework the last every time. I wish talking to the teachers would help but after like 1000 attempts i have given up, this year i dig my grave and say goodbye to this abusive industry
i wish good luck to everyone who is also stuck in burnout with no way out.
Take your time man. I may not know what it feels like to have burnouts but I hope your feeling better
Having been through burnout, it's one hell to go through.
Hope you're getting all the help you can get.
I find that loss in motivation is a lot like back pain, in some cases you sort of just need to push through it while making sure you are not pushing in such a way or intensity that you end up making it worse, in those cases it may be just the ups and downs of life and hopefully they will eventually sort themselves out. however in some cases the act of pushing through it will in itself make it worse and will eventually lead to burnout if that is the cases (ideally before burnout) you take some time evaluate what you are doing in your worklife. A lot of people have the subconscious misconceptions that things like procrastination, loss of motivation, fatigue and/or stress exist in a vacuum and just happen but that's usually not the case, this things are caused by you feeling something and can generally only get overcome by addressing and tackling them
I'm not an expert but I have experienced burnout far more times in my life then I should given how young I am and in past the limited amount of obligations I had, having a toxic work ethic is something that you at some point need to change or overcome
Uhh yeah don't worry Blocko if it gets real bad you don't have to feel pressure to upload, but if you do I'll still be there supporting your channel!
My boss just enjoys trying to make his employees squirm with constant meetings. Fml, I gotta find a new job.
I found that when you take time and write out your thoughts or get lost in a drawing it helps listening to good music and taking a mental health day to yourself also is a great thing never stop believing in yourself though it’s tough but your good enough so don’t stress it at all
this nostalgia seeing this channel after 7 years when i stopped watching this
When I was a baker I seen 2 mental break downs and 2 physical break downs at the same job.
as a young social worker who just got in to her field I've already experienced it, i was working health care during the first wave of Covid-19 and it sucked i was working around the clock and going to school so I had to step back from working so much and focus on finishing my degree it sucks burn out sucks and i hate it, it can go dye in whole lol
I like to keep my head down and just work but my coach/boss always can notice when I need some time off so he usually makes the call
3:07 Me: I'm having a burnout
Therapist: Same
In school right now been dealing with this for more than 1 year (or at least I think)
Welcome back James missed u glad your getting back on track we understand take all the time u need take care of your self I experience this last year and year before
4:42 Nobody's gonna talk about this? 😂
I know it has ben more than half a year now, but I hope YOU are doing well now.

Thank you for your videos and don't be nervous when you dont make your videos regularly. Your well beying is not worth it.
Now imagine suffering crippling depression and also burnt out. I call that 25 years of my life! And I only wish I was joking.
With burnout you just need sheer force of will, and things that don't have time to be skipped further. So, you are forced to continue, and you have less time to think about how burned out you are. Though that is mentally straining it works.
yep really felt this that i almost cried while eating dinner
The scream at the end was so random I loved it lmao.
I do writing as a side gig and burnout happens more than I'd like to admit. A lot of it stems from being tired of certain projects, or just not feeling like I can write the right things in the hopes of getting published. I combat this weekly by taking a day to do zero writing.

Life noggin you can take all the time you need. We care about you and really don’t want you to be hurt because of us. Burn out can really be bad and I know that from experience. Just you should be taking more breaks you send out videos so frequently and it satisfies many people but that can effect you really badly.
Don’t worry blocko we love you
I've been there. Burnt out at a new job last year. I changed careers and am hopeful now; I hope this new year can give you a reprieve as well.
this is the year of life noggin and its going to be a great year
Why not ask Jaden? She did a vid on burn... the work ouchies
I’m constantly there in life.
How did james get in without the portal!! Something's weirddd
Take it easy blocko, your fans are here always by your side and you have limitless potential so you don't have to worry about anything
So in other words basically school
When a truck comes into the living room and does not destroys items in the house.
Hey Noggin, what if you outsourced your animating to your fans every now and then? That would make the work easier and the art style new and refreshing for the new year! Btw, I hope that you continue to be able to manage your health. Take care, my good man.
I love the colaberation u did
I couldn't wait for class to finish to watch this
Wasnt this uploaded like afew years ago too or is that just me being dumb
I get burnout all the time. School sucks.
that ending doe
Yup that's happening to me I used to do 3 videos every week know its 1-2 a month if lucky
Im facing burnout daily in my corporate company 😞
Had this happen to me but I wish I knew how it was effecting me. It went way too far. I did quit tho it was awful there and now work somewhere way better 😁 (for anyone that thinks I did the wrong I did try to talk to my boss to see eye to eye what they were doing that was effecting me but she pretty much didnt care and continued doing so.)

I feel like I’ve been burn out since 2015 or so. Well i got better but then covid happened. And the funny thing is i haven’t had a permanent job since 2017.
Seems like you AND your animator are having a bit of a down season. Good to know you guys are doing ok.
Edit: Didn't realize this was at the beginning of the year.
wait i think i had a burnout at school one day but its probrably just me being lazy
Sit down on the campfire and rest. The journey is still long. No one will blame you when you take a break time to time.
That intro sounds exactly like high school.
Schools: lets just ignore this
i love your vids keep up the good work😊
I feel like ADHD can excaerbate the problem... I feel burnout at a new job within a month or two. It's destroying my life. Please help.
You don't have to worry about posting take a break if needed get some rest and I hope you start to feel better
where is gregory have you seen gregory
Noggin is life
Back to normal? Monday and Thursday?
Is it just me or is the animation community taking a big hit these recent years did the algorithm change against them again?
What about Boreout
UA-camrs help people get entertainment so UA-camrs feel burnout
Yeah, burnout can be a serious problem. Take some time for yourself, Blocko, and get some rest. Please remember to always wear your seatbelt, keep on thinking, and as I'll say... Keep on Patrolling.
Well said
Very well said!
Extremely well said!
Superbly very well said!!
Rezok the thing is i dont have my "my time" since myparents alaways cares my grades than my mentsl health

I needed this video. Im really burned out with life and everything is just, dull..
I'm feeling the same. It seems that I'm burned out not especially by work, but by life itself. It sucks...
The scream at the end was legendary.
You’re a great content creator on this platform and being able to watch your videos makes me feel like I’m helping myself
Blocko sounds so dead inside. I hope you feel better my guy plz don’t push yourself too hard we can wait as long as you need 🥺
I can imagine him having a mental identity crisis…
Thank you I didn't think about it but I'm completely burnt out. This making me realize this makes me feel a little better atleast. More of just being human instead of a failure.

You could really tell from Life Noggin's voice that he's not in peak condition.
Wish you well, buddy!
I’m a medical student and I’m so burnt out from studying for exams, I lost all my muscles from 1.5 years of gym and I’ve got purple stretch marks from gaining so much fat so quickly. I’m also struggling to remember things and I feel no pleasure from life besides from eating or sleeping. Its sad, but I have two weeks left before I finish this exam.
Claim your here within 1 minute ticket here!
I love sonic
Hey im also going through burn out but im in high school and cant seem to focus on my studies all friend are better than me in getting grades and I have stopped everything from watching anime to practicing art (I wanna be a mangaka when I grow up) but i still get low grades and at this point i just dont want to dissapoint my parents any advice
Help a brudha out🙏🙏.
#dearblocko: why do I feel like nothing emptiness?
Yes, I'm experiencing burnout and I didn't knew about it, I had to go to therapy as I was often more depressed and wasn't aware why. Just recognizing it was burnout helped a lot, taking the load of helps a ton
When I had massive burnout I asked my boss to switch to a 4 days/week 10 hour schedule for a couple weeks, so I could just have time to chill. I actually took that additional day on Wednesdays, so I'd only work 2 days in a row at any point. It worked very well.
Just got a job that fose 4 10 and only sometimes 5 10s but thats still 2 days off
Guys, I think the odd1sout is in this.
Blocko+James+Burnout=Amazing
I was actually thinking about burnout recently, so I really needed this video. Thanks Blocko, and keep being awesome!
Schools: Ima pretend I didn’t see that.
