Night shift. I can sleep during the day the first night. Anyone else?

Published

I am working a string of night shifts because I am desperate for money at the moment. I cannot sleep at all the during the day the first night. Does anyone else have this problem? How do you cope if you are not a nightshift person. Any pointers to get through it alertly? I never fall asleep but my brain gets really tired.

Thank u all for your advice. I made it but it was tough. I am not doing anymore though. I work for an agency and I am going to Oklahoma for a 7a to 7p shift Saturday and Sunday.
