The first thing is to know your limits. I personally wouldn't be able to handle streaming for an hour (I'm assuming you have a webcam and are juggling playing the game and interacting with chat) without spending the rest of the day recuperating. There's also nothing wrong with just relaxing. And I don't mean something like watching Netflix or eating comfort food, but I mean literally just laying down and relaxing. You are not factory equipment. You are a human with limits. You are allowed to have downtime. You are allowed to be in idle mode. You are allowed to relax.
I've always struggled with that. Whenever I allow my mind to idle, I start thinking about random stuff, and inevitably my childhood trauma comes up. Then I enter a downspiral that's hard for me to escape.
I think you're falling into the trap of doing things for the sake of doing things because you can't be alone with your thoughts, but most people can't continue doing things without rest eventually, so you can't keep on doing things for the sake of doing things but have to eventually stop which forces you to be alone with your thoughts.
But I think you already know this. Sorry for not being more helpful.
