after working 65 hours a week for the past few months, i think im starting to lose it. everything was fine until my car kept breaking, and i couldnt escape the stress of it. now i cant sleep, im lucky if i get 3 hours a night. ive become very irratible, and after busy hour at work, its like i snap or something, i have trouble talking, i move very slow, and i notice i dont blink at all. sure you might say, dont work so much, but i have to work. not because i need money, but its more like im addicted to work. when i have a day off i get stressed because i feel like they need me at work, or i feel like i have to make more money. and every time i take a day off work i feel super guilty about it. i just dont know what to do. is there any way i can get some sort of workers comp. due to illness or anything like that if i see a doctor, because i like my job, and all the people i work with, and i dont really want to risk getting fired or having to quit because i cant function properly. is there anything i can do, like getting doctor recommendation for going on vacation just to make sure i dont lose my job? first ill just try talking to my manager, and my parents too, hopefully they will be willing to help me.
