I work 4am to 1230 pm shifts. My place is completely blacked out. You will adjust with time. Took a good year. Always try to go to bed on time. I refuse to take naps because they screw up my sleep schedule. Use sleeping pills sparingly for the nights you just don't feel tired. Avoid peer pressure to stay up later. Getting up at a weird time is no joke. Don't let your friends talk you Into be irresponsible with your rest period. Expect your social life to suffer, at least the first year
