Thank you for responding to my post, I appreciate it.
I spoke with my psychiatrist about this and she said she advises her patients with bipolar to not work overnights. Knowing what I know about myself and my energy level, I just don't think I can handle it. I was offered the job and talked it over with several family members, all of whom (surprisingly) concurred overnights would be too taxing. Maybe 10 years ago I could have done it, but I was working long, odd hours even then and barely getting by. I guess I feel like I'm too old to start something like this. Anyway, I declined the job but did offer to work prn and on call and they offered me that kind of position. That way I have a little more control over when I work and when I can't. Because some days I just can't.
Hope you are doing well.
