I was told by a GP that I have to give up night work due to my severe MH but my phycologist plus other phyciatrists have said that because I have done it for 35 years it wouldn't really be a problem who do I listen too

Hi @Dammit ...what are your own thoughts? I think if you can manage the night work despite your MI, then it would be good to continue as long as possible. Do you feel you are managing the night work at the moment?

Im not sure what MH stands for. But generally I would say the decision is going to be ultimately yours. The GP can give you medical grounds to stop work if that is what you wish to do. The physchologist and pyschriast have provided their "opinion". I guess it depends which of these medical professional have you been interacting the longest with and who know you "personally" and your medical history. Its a decision that is ultimately going to be yours and it can be daunting but you need to make the decision and be comfortable with the outcome
