Never had a good experience with headhunters, mainly the few I worked with used a bait and switch strategy. Get me hyped up for a vacancy then switch it to a different company which is shit. Maybe I was just working with the wrong people. I’ve had better success staying loyal to the company and working with internal recruiters.

Having a couple of things I like to do helps me such as listening to music, reading, watching movies, gaming etc. Having the discipline to cut off took a while to master as well. Over the weekends, I tell my team members not to send emails or text messages unless its super urgent. I give myself targets, for example watching a couple of movies or TV shows over the weekend and deal with the shit come Monday.

I was supposed to have a great time but instead I burned myself out

That’s when you need to take a step back, do something else. When I’m gaming I do burn myself out, so now I’m taking a break from WoW and started on movies / tv shows again.

Might sound crazy, but I actually went through it all lol. For music you may want to consider the lastfm cog. I use it for movies so I have themoviedb cog and created my own letterboxd cog… not great but it works. i also use aiuser with an API, useful to get some (old) information and you can set it up to roast people or talk in a certain way for entertainment purposes. cleanup is another useful cog to quickly clean up a lot of messages quickly (delete from message ID, delete messages between message ID1 and ID2 etc). i use the system cog to get server cpu/ram/hd usage.
