how long will it take for my body to adjust to a new schedule?
Question:
Answers:
this all depends on the person-i've been working nites for about 4 years now and i love it (7p-7a)
your body is naturally used to being awake during the day so you're going to be fighting your natural clock and it might take a few weeks to adjust...
best thing to do is keep the same schedule-even on days off. otherwise you will confuse your body and you'll constantly feel tired. try to go to bed at the same time every morning and get up at the same time each nite. broken sleep will make you feel worse (if you get up for a while then try to go back to sleep)-it does me anyways.
in bad instances where you have to sleep but can't-you can take benadryl or tylenol pm-neither are habit forming and will make you sleep
good luck
Its differant for differant people.....some can adapt and others need plenty of sleep and never adapt.
