Reconstruction Fatigue
Feeling tired, overwhelmed, or stuck while trying to rebuild your beliefs
You’re exhausted from reading, thinking, or searching for truth.
You just want to rest but feel pressure to "figure it all out."
You’ve lost motivation to keep exploring spiritual ideas.
Potential clinical implications (especially in high control settings)
Emotional exhaustion and spiritual burnout may be present.
Guilt may arise for pausing or stepping back from spiritual exploration.
Rest and permission to slow down may be essential for recovery.
