I haven't done them regularly for months, as my dr suggests against them and they seem to make my cycles worse (surprise surprise) and all around ****** from hell comes out. I don't enjoy ***** from hell. I really don't. I get impulsive and down right angry full of rage.
But my partner is trying to encourage me to work two do one to two doubles a pay period. I miss the money... I do. But .... I'm terrified of myself.
Most people are scared of spiders, but
I'm scared of myself. Especially when I don't have any PRNS and can't control my tornado of modds etc.
I've tried explaining this to my spouse but we're still trying to catch up on bills from when I was unwell.
Thoughts?

I work in healthcare too (I'm an RN), & have very similar rotating shifts to you. No matter how good the money is it isn't worth getting sick over. Shift work sent me batty eventually, I also became an angry, obsessive & impulsive ***** who was unable to function without prns & MJ. Now I'm working mainly am shifts I'm in a much better place mentally & stopped smoking.
