A member asked:
Age 58. under stress and anxiety for past year and insomnia. can either or all of these affect job performance or could age be factor?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Consider...: 58 is not old (i'm 58), and anxiety and lack of proper sleep will effect work performance at any age. 58 would be too old to be a fighter pilot, but i think most functions of normal work should be fine at your age. Anxiety can be controlled. Please see a mental health professional for advice.
