So long story short, I’m pretty sure work is going to ask me to switch to nights because other employees have either quit or aren’t trained well enough. I did work nights for roughly three years and it was a leading cause of poor health, both mental and physical, and also a main contributing factor to my addiction to alcohol. Luckily I got off nights and I’ve been able to turn myself around. I’m in a much better place now and have been very happily sober for coming up to a year pretty soon. Amongst other things like quality of life, and passtime activities, I’m doing better.
What I’m curious about is it possible to get a doctor to write me a note or something to help me stay off nights? I’ve had other co workers who were able to dodge it by claiming sleep apnea with a doctors note, so I don’t feel like it’s too far fetched for a doctor to to help me in my situation.
Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you.
