I've gone through two full rounds of edits on this nonfiction business-technology book I'm doing. I was totally exhausted after that last round, and have barely been able to function for over a month. But I was about ready to start on the second book (in the three-book series) but now the editor at the publisher are saying the first two times, the editors didn't catch everything, and this new copyeditor found some more things I need to correct to fit their style (things like brackets instead of parentheses, but also some heavy paraphrasing) so, of course, I have to go back through it and pick to the tiniest detail and make some more edits. And just when I felt this 10-ton truck lifting from my compressed ribs!
