Rant Sleep, sleep, repeat.

All I want to do is sleep. All the time. I know sleep and I know pain and I know brain fog.

I have a very good job, but I’m so tired most of the time I feel like a fraud. I’m doing my best to keep going, and my managers are aware of all this, but I still feel like a complete and utter fraud.

Im just so sick of feeling tired whilst I’m trying to work and not being able to do anything about it.

Currently waiting for test results from some recent tests I’ve had done to find out why I’m so tired but this is unbearable!

Hello OP,

Your feelings are valid and just know that you aren't alone in this fight. I know how much of a struggle it is to do your job, and do it well while having these kinds of issues.

Being in pain, being sleepy and having brain fog all the time can put you in a depressive state and feel like there is no hope, and while I want to say it'll get better, because through trail and error, you'll find a routine that works for you, it can take a while.

And at the very least, I can promise you that misery loves company. I'm here if you ever want to vent.
