Busy.

That's a good word. Not like fatigued (or frazzled or other words beginning with F).

It’s good to be busy. Everyone wants to be busy. It means we have things to do, which in turn means we are useful to others. It’s why there are so many centenarians in those small mountainous communities where no-one ever retires, because everyone has their part to play. Not being busy means not being useful, at least for a while, and who wants that?

But there is a point on the ‘things to do’ continuum where busy becomes burnt out or broken (or other words beginning with B).
