I figure I am a night person by nature but have been living by society norms. I have never taken 3 or more months off and it was two months before the change. I would love to say I am productive but I can't. I think exacerbating the problem is being depressed about my career and morning my cat. In September/October I had a lot of energy for artwork but now I have a hard time with that too. I should be ready to submit work to a gallery and I am not.
I need to get a job in January but I am still unmotivated to apply. I very concerned about having to go back to a "Normal" sleep cycle. I have a plan to change my career to something more suitable but I can't right now.
I imagine this is a lot like going from a night shift to a day shift or vice versa. Are there folks that have gone through this and how have you dealt with it?

hey michanne.dont know if i can help.but i want u to know that someone cares.i an a night person.always have been.i know ur talking alot about ur job.but ur first sentences were about that and your cat.and u said that was not the issue.but i think(and i dont know) those two things are ur main issues.ur still grieving over ur cat.that maybe stupid to some.but not to me.actually.i bet there are alot of people on here that love animals like we do.do u have children? i do.and i love my children more of course.but b4 i had kids.animals were my kids.and really still are.if u cant sleep.maybe do art? if u cant do anything now.then grieve,cry.its ok.as a career change? if u can afford it.or work and do it.what about a vet.for animals(we need them at night) nurse..hosp. always open(at night) try and think of any night jobs,or jobs that u would like.but.it is holidays.they not good for me.and maybe not for u.esp.since u lost someome(ur cat).that u loved sooo very much.sorry if i didnt help.not good at this. pamj533
