Night shift.

I never get any sleep on night shift and it affects what little sleep schedule I had making my anxiety worse sometimes. Because the last few nights I've been functioning off of 5 hours. I'm exhausted but now restless like I get sometimes. The only problem now is my anxiety is starting to rev up. I KNOW it's a result of no sleep. Just came here to let off a little steam. This job has so many benefits and great perks. Dont wanna leave but sometimes it definitely takes a toll on my body

Night shift does take a toll. My doctors wanted me off nights for that reason.

The lack of sleep was increasing my anxiety, the same as it's doing to you.

I hope you can eventually settle into a better sleep pattern for yourself.
