I'm working overnights now and after 1 week of trying to adjust it sure is kicking my ass. The change in sleeping schedule is the most difficult part. I can't seem to sleep for 6-7 hours anymore without waking up several times in between.
Finally, my first night off and I am traumatized by my dreams. I literally was in tears when I awoke. The dreams were so emotional and powerful that I felt helpless. I changed my diet in the hopes of getting more nutrients and less processed food into my system. So i could at least stay awake and energized throughout my shift and so far it has been helping.
I hope this exhaustion is only for the first month or so of adjusting.
