Am I working to much?
So I'm 22years old I work 40hours a week at a warehouse unloading semi truck trailers. I walk around 7miles a day just at work and move over 300boxes a day. It takes me 1 hour and 25 minutes to get to work and when I leave it usually takes me upwards to 2 hours and 20mins. I start work at 6:00am and I end at 2:00pm. Even when I leave at too most of the time I don't get home till late 6pm or early 7pm. On Saturday I work as a medic for football games which I drive a total of 80miles and I walk about 3 miles there. I been stressing a lot too. For the last two weeks I been extremely fatigued. I'm at work now and my lower back hurts I'm like falling a sleep just standing up and if I sit down in the right position I might fall a sleep there. Yesterday I went to bed at 9:07 and woke up at 4:00 to head to
work. Saturday night I went to bed around 11pm and woke up at 6am. I then took a nap at 1pm till 4pm. I feel like I been using my
body way to much for the last couple months. I don't like feeling this way because when I drive home it's becoming dangerous for me. What do you guys suggest I do. I wish I could just focus on school full time and not have to work.

Seems you spend a lot of time (and money) traveling . Hopefully you are being paid well. If you had everything in one spot, you would save a lot of time , and money, and wear and tear on your vehicle, and the roads would be safer too.

You are getting over 7 hours of sleep a day.
If you aren't able to function with that, you need to see a doctor.

Spending four hours a day commuting for a job is plain stupid.
As far as your back and fatigue goes, no one here can diagnose or treat you. You do physical labor - make sure you're using all the property lifting methods, safety precautions and equipment, etc. and see a health care provider when indicated.
If you need to make a change in your life, do it. You could move closer to work or you could find a different job.
