Any shift workers in here have advice for switching between days and nights? I was working days 6am to 6pm and would wake up at 4:30am and go to sleep at around 9pm. Then I was switched to nights and now work 6pm to 6am, for the past three shifts, I go to sleep shortly after arriving home (which is a work camp) so around 7am but every morning I wake up at around 10am after sleeping only 3 hours or so. I do manage to get back to sleep by around noon until 4pm so in the end I do get my 6-7 hours sleep but I'd much prefer it to be uninterrupted. I have my light box but don't want to use it until I get a solid sleep.
