I feel so tired after half a day of work, never mind working a full day. After a couple of weeks of this, when i get home, i have no energy left for anything. Even things I usually enjoy.

Everything feels like a drag at that point and I can’t seem to do anything to improve this.

Doing this for a few more months usually ends up with me having to quit my job or i will get so tired and sick I can’t do anything anymore.

How to deal with this?

    We have a dedicated short rest room. But I have also done it common area or at my desk.

    I wear my good friend, noice canceling headphones.

    I can understand that you don’t feel safe/comfortable. How do you get comfortable with something new if you don’t try?

      I think it’s more the feeling that somebody will call me out when resting, or that I might miss something important, or unfamiliarity with the people around me.

      At work i already feel like I’m constantly alert. Trying to sing anything that make me look like a bad employee.

      Until my energy runs out of course. Then I usually still force myself to keep working, but everything goes at a glacial pace and my tiredness just accumulates even further.
