I’m only an SA but already starting to develop horrible eye bags from stress and lack of sleep. It’s definitely begin to affect my confidence a bit. I imagine with everyone working long and stressful hours this would be a good place to ask. Anyone have any remedies?

Pivot into tech before it’s too late
There’s no actual fix besides getting more sleep. Even with work hours you should be able to fit in 8 hours (1am-9am) of sleep most nights, so you have to sacrifice other things if you want to.
Like when I work super late I won’t look at my phone before bed, won’t wake up early to lift in the morning, will sleep in as late as possible before logging on/don’t spend a lot of time getting ready in the morning (I can get ready in ~15 minutes). It’s just like college where you have to make trade offs about what is important to you and if you want to get proper sleep.
