I have discovered a pattern that after around 3 hours of deep mental work I am exhausted and I can’t do anything any more that day.
What are your strategies to get more work done, or just to not feel miserable for the rest of the day?

Prolonged mental exhaustion causes a buildup of glutamate in areas like the lateral prefrontal cortex. Sustained overstimulation can lead to excitotoxicity, where excess glutamate damages neurons.
I do not understand the words, but I do fear them.
