Interviewing for a job where I'd either be working 11pm-9am four nights a week or one 14 hour day and two 10 hour days or something.

My mom is very skeptical about the overnight, and I'm aware there are health risks, but if they offer it I don't think I've got much choice as I am currently sans job. I'm already a bit of a night owl, is it manageable if I take precautions?

Yeah I don't want to do it long term and my mental health isn't great right now to begin with, but I don't think I have any choice if they offer it to me. I've been unemployed for 8, 9 months now? I need a steady income

I added a couple remarks in an edit to my original comment. I would say that a steady income will be better for your mental health in the near term, but from personal experience it wasn't something sustainable for me.
