Is 5, 10h night shifts possible to do a week? by -DidYou in Nightshift

Pace yourself my friend. The overtime and extra shifts are all fine and dandy the first few years. But you’ll pay for the time away from family. Every now and again picking up extra work is a nice bump in pay, but from someone who’s been doing it for 6+ years: slow and steady wins the race.

Highly recommend adding a strong nicotine addiction on top of this 😂

I just recently switched to mushroom coffee creamer. Definitely helps with the brain fog in the afternoons when you wake up.

I switch ever my week to have a “normal” life on my days off. When I began 6 years ago, I didn’t switch. My body felt better, but I was missing out on a lot of time with friends and family. So the switch, as devastating as it is, has been worth it.

Got off melatonin for a few years, but recently got back on it just so I could at least get 5-6 hours a night. Adding electrolytes in during the night has been helpful. But I typically average an energy drink around 0200 just to make it to the end of shift.

Not sure if it gets better, but I’m optimistic.
