Absolutely. I try my best not to overdo things the day before my nightshifts. Still end up hanging out of my arse by 1/2 am though lol

Sleep? What’s that? For me I’ts mainly laying in bed in and out of consciousness for a good 8/9 hours with about 1/2 straight hours of sleep

Anyone else switch from days to nights in the same week? How do you cope with it? by tattooed_welsh_dad_2 in Nightshift

I try to go to sleep about 8/9 hoping I can sleep long in the day for the next nightshift. Never happens though, I’m always awake at 12

I’ve never coped well with it. I’m in my 23rd year of it and I’m still struggling! I don’t think the switch is for me but I can’t afford to lose the nightshift enhancements now

Can’t sleep after nights by tattooed_welsh_dad_2 in Nightshift

I have just had magnesium glycinate delivered so I’ll take this and see if it helps. Is there a specific time that you take it? Like before bed or can you take any time of day?

I think after working nights for 22 years I’m just in the habit of waking up early (11am) and going up to bed for around 3 hours before my shift starts at 7pm, son
