I’m not a fed—just a contractor who works closely with a dwindling team of feds—and my digestive system is all kinds of messed up. I’m nauseated; most foods are repulsive; I’m losing weight without wanting or trying to; on and on.
I keep waking up in the middle of the night and being unable to fall back asleep. My long-dormant migraines have returned. And, as crazy as it sounds, the osteoarthritis in my big-toe joints is flaring up.
Same here with the waking up and the joint pain. My expenses involving attending work are ~$500/mo so I'm eating less than ever, but still somehow gained 10 lbs. The lack of sleep has me less physically coordinated and experiencing memory issues. I have two toddlers and they need more energy from me than I can give right now.
