General Malaise

Working in the ED has been really challenging, both mentally and physically. Whilst i'm at work, the adrenaline and stress keeps me on my toes and i'm fine. It's just once i'm done with my shift, the fatigue kicks in. I'm always tired these days, and falling asleep over my food. I don't wake up feeling energised and just count down the days to when i get that precious day off. I'm exhausted. And even Yorkie Bars or Godiva for that matter aren't doing their usual thingimagic. I've got awful dark rings. I'm only seen in my scrubs. And I'm back to my speccy self cos my eyes don't seem to keep open long enough for my contacts to stay in for 12 hour long shifts. The bf does not work in the ED, so he doesn't really understand. All he ever tells me is i'm best off not working in one. That doesn't really help either, cos i want to do this ED job and i can't change it anyhow.

I'm tired and nothing is shifting it. That makes me really miserable.

Currently doing: Not much really. Staring at the wall and counting down the minutes to when i have to leave the house for work again. Sigh.
