Ah yeah - I’ve never worked past like 5:30 - so I got no idea

That’s what is making me worried, do you think I can ask my doctor for sleeping pills / Xanax?

+ any coping mechanisms with regular work?-

Take Foquest first thing in the morning - lasts ~14-16 hours and is effective at what it does. If you miss it in the morning, can’t take it later though because it will definitely mess up your sleep schedule.

Also, consistency is key. Take melatonin one week to go to sleep at the same time everyday and you should be set for the weeks after.

Hello All,

I bought CER006 on Nov 21 with my current company email id and completed one certification. I am leaving my current organization and I still have 9+ months time left for CER006. My company says the s user id provided by them will get de-activated once I leave (in a week). I have not claimed the amount also. Is there any way I can transfer the certification to my personal email I'd so that I can write other exams in time left?

But what about now? Would love to listen to your thoughts and observations on that one
