Burnout is a prevalent feeling i fight against in my day to day life.
Since im not employed is pretty easy for me to get burned out from games in general, specifically WoW which i consider to be my main game i play on and off since TBC.
Here is how i personaly deal with it, since the objective is to detox WoW from your system to end up missing playing it again.
1-Playing other game/s
I personally start the detox process by replacing WoW with another game BUT for me this is absolutely NOT enough.
You may think you are just burned out of WoW but sometimes you are ALSO burned out of "games" in general.
This is always how i start the process but is not enough.
2-Work on a hobby
Very important step for me.
I need to immerse myself in work or a hobby to counterbalance the overload of videogames in my life.
Personally i work on my art (digital paintings).
3-Chill and Hibernate
This step is just (for me) youtube, netflix, movies, walks, grabbing a coffee outside.
Is your chill step outside of your work/hobby hours
4-Drunk with friends on discord call
Me and online friends grab a drink and talk online while playing or watching stuff online...good times
Just dont do it a lot, lol.
5-Join the latest HYPE-TRAIN of a videogame release
Hype trains only come once in a full moon, so take advantage of those rare times to catch the wave of motivation to play a new thing that is just releasing and entire internet is streaming on twitch and talking about on youtube.

Thats it for me, usually the detox takes weeks/months
How about you?
