JAKARTA - Actress Nirina Zubir openly shared the story of her struggle against burnout after undergoing four major projects without a break. Nirina revealed how her physical and mental condition really dropped.

"Yesterday there were four road projects without a break, so finally the completion of the four projects disappeared for a moment, to strengthen mentally again. Life is not only around the job, but it turns out that there are cases that must be resolved," said Nirina in the Menteng area, Central Jakarta, Wednesday, June 4.

Frequent busyness makes Nirina feel very tired, both physically and emotionally. He admits that he has had tough times where he really doesn't want to do anything.

"Yesterday there was, as a human being, I used to feel burned out. I just disappeared and a body that really didn't want to do anything, didn't want to leave the house, didn't want to meet friends, thank God two months like that," he continued.

Furthermore, Nirina even described her very passive condition and lost motivation for her routine, including activities she previously liked like sports.

"For the past two months, I really didn't want to do anything until I didn't want to do sports at all. Even at the last stage, almost a week, I didn't want to take a shower," he said honestly.

Although many advised to consult professionally, Nirina admitted that she had rejected all forms of interaction, even online.

"But even to go to a psychologist at that time, I didn't want to, really left the house, didn't want to, contact with interactions with a zoom event or online, I didn't want to, really wanted to be at home," he explained.

Ernest, the husband who is also a member of the band Chocolate, had tried to invite Nirina to do light activities to improve her mood, but her response was out of style.

"Even at that time the husband also asked that, it was like 'Let's just walk around the complex', 'no', (husband was surprised) 'oh, no? You never said you didn't do sports', 'yes, but this time I don't know, his body seems like you don't want it', that's it," said Nirina.

But slowly, he began to reopen and talk to his closest friends, including professionals in the field of mental health.

"After running it for 2 months, I started chatting with my friends again, there were also fellow psychiatrists, psychologists too, and they said there was a moment like that," he continued.

For Nirina, this experience is part of the learning process and a reminder that the body and soul also need rest.

"I still feel like I'm going to myself if this is one of God's ways to 'rest first, you', we don't understand, there's no work at all, there's still a lot of cases, expenses are still there, so it's getting more and more woaahh down, down, down like that," he concluded.
