“After 10 years in the profession I love, I am seriously considering leaving due to the impact fatigue is having on my family life."

"I now take medication for depression.

"When I started 10 years ago it wasn’t this bad. But with our horrendously busy night shifts I spend all my non-work time like a zombie, trying to recover.”
