Burnt on YouTube

It is one part of YouTube that is dreadful. There are a lot of unused channels or channels that used to be prevalent but have had reasons for stopping on making videos. For ones that might still be around, the stress and tension of putting up content every day is a struggle.

The only time I ever got burnt out on anything was studying for college finals way back in 2012. It didn't help that I had three exams on one day, but still. Wear and tear of the fall season was prevalent. Even though it is two different things, YouTube can bring out a worn out user. I'm lucky to say I haven't had that issue. Only some personal stuff that occurred and no drive to do videos for a good year and a half. Not because I got tired of it.

There is this pressure to keep fans interested in what you have. Some think every day videos or schedule once or twice a week. Variety of videos or cover one genre that you think will get people into the channel. You miss a day or a week and subscribers for the big channels may stop being interested. Unfortunately, fans are very spoiled and don't understand this stuff. Hopefully at some point, they understand.

It doesn't hurt to take a break or film a large number of stuff within a day or two for content that can last two to three months. Doesn't hurt to try a couple things that can ease the stress or a small vacation.
