I'm working a night shift from 3:00 PM to 12:00 AM, and I've been having this issue where my breathing stops while I'm asleep. When I wake up in the morning, I end up vomiting, and there's also this white spit. It's honestly quite worrying, and I could really use some advice on what's going on here. Any insights would be appreciated.
