Invisalign Final Retainer - Bad for my Teeth to Only Wear It at Night?

Morning fox
I was wondering if it's bad for my teeth to wear the final retainer each night? It feels as if my teeth are constantly being moved back and forth and don't get the chance to 'cement' into place and become strong again. They were sore if i pushed hard on them and quite sensitive so I stopped wearing the retainer for the past 2 months and although my teeth have reverted slightly they aren't sore anymore. I'd like to keep them straight though! Is it really ok for me to wear a retainer each night?
