Overview

Rest used to work. Now it doesn't. Vacations end in exhaustion. Weekends disappear without relief. Sleep no longer restores. Even time off feels strangely demanding. The Collapse of Recovery examines a quiet but widespread shift in modern life: why the systems that once allowed us to recover no longer do, and why exhaustion today feels deeper, stickier, and harder to escape. This is not a book about burnout alone. It is about what happens when recovery itself breaks down. Drawing on psychology, neuroscience, work culture, and lived experience, Caleb Morland shows how modern recovery has been compromised by constant cognitive load, fragmented attention, emotional labor, and environments that never fully switch off. The problem is no longer effort alone, but the absence of genuine down-regulation. Inside, you'll discover: Why rest often increases fatigue instead of relieving it How constant low-grade stimulation keeps the nervous system from resetting Why traditional advice like ""take time off"" or ""set boundaries"" frequently fails How modern work, relationships, and technology quietly erode recovery capacity What meaningful recovery actually requires now, and why it feels unfamiliar This book does not offer quick fixes or optimization routines. It offers clarity. The Collapse of Recovery is for people who are not lazy, unmotivated, or broken, but who sense that something fundamental has changed. For professionals, caregivers, thinkers, and partners who keep functioning while feeling increasingly depleted, this book names the problem they have struggled to articulate. Not a manifesto. Not a self-help manual. But a clear, unsettling, and ultimately grounding examination of why rest no longer restores, and what that means for modern life.
