Hello, not a doctor, but a person whi has suffered from insomnia for about 15 years. Make sure your colleagues pay attention to the workout time, for some it will wake them up and some it will put them to sleep. If im really sleepy (yes, I'm supposed to be awake), i eat bananas (3 over 8 hours and dried apple slices)... so theres my 2 cents thats even worth a half a penny..... Quick question: why do all resident videos on you tube mention lack of time to eat? There are sooo many healthy snacks available...fresh fruit (blueberries, apples, grapes (raisins), applesauce cups are a staple in my desk.....I work in insurance and some days i can't eat entire meal, i leep the snacks around....mama can't sell uf she is hangry.....just curious, thanks for reading.

Worked night shifts at a hospital full time. 1. Try to take a nap about 5 hours before your shift. 2. Mask, blackout curtains, relaxing sleep sounds 3. Get a workout in before the shift. It always got me going. 4. Don't over eat during the shift. Fasted state will pump glucagon and epinephrine. Will keep you wide awake. I would usually only bring water with some electrolyte supplement.

I have been on night shift for 5 yrs at a hotel. I get off between 7-9 I lay down my first nap about 10-2pm then I’m up for my kids then I spend from 2-7 doing things I need to around the house then at 7pm I lay back down for a nap till 10-11 depending when I go in. Then I’m at work around 3am I do usually dinner type things. Then again around 5-6am I do a LIGHT breakfast (oatmeal cereal bagel one of them) then rinse and repeat.

Dark room, cold bed (mattress cooler), ear plugs, eye mask, fan, and white noise. Do not eat prior to sleep. Catch up with sleep on non night shift days. Sleep is IMPORTANT! I work 2-3 doubles per week, 3pm-7:30am and 2-3 8 hour day shifts per week.

The critical factor I've learned after 10 years straight on night shifts: Consistency. Keep the routine. People don't last long on 3rd shift if they constantly flip back and forth on their days off, or if they have a spouse or kids that don't respect the sleep-time. The sad part of this is some workplaces won't allow your body to develop to a new pattern, and may have you switch sleep cycles constantly. THESE ARE THE WORST, and will severely impact your cognitive function because your body and brain won't know when to sleep. Jobs that don't have static night shifts or ask you to flip shifts more than once every other week should be short-term deals. Avoid these if at all possible.

As someone who's worked the night shift for a solid 5 years, the advice on fully embracing the night shift is spot on! I'm a night auditor for a motel and I have honestly fallen in love with working nights. I don't struggle with FOMO because I'm an introvert, and everything being reversed is kinda funny to me when I try and tell others my routine lol I appreciate your video, got me to smile ear to ear through the whole thing. It's honestly not too hard to get accustomed to once you get it down. At this point, I love the night lifestyle lol

Thank you for these tips! 🙏 I’m on my post grad year and having a hard time adjusting my body clock to the night shift. I agree so much with the FOMO as I also hate sleeping the day away when I come home. No choice but to truly embrace the night shift and learn to unwind immediately the next day! 😅

Commit to the night shift doc! ☀️ I’m going to tweak this phase for the remainder of my term in nursing school. Commit to the last 3 months! I’m almost there.

don't forget.. drink plenty of water and try not to drink so much coffee throughout the course of the shift. I'm not sure if this happens to others but sometimes I won't even be able to sleep after my night shifts if I have coffee after 3 am.

Taking a nap before your night shift is super helpful too! I like to wake up a couple hours before i go in so i am not groggy but mid afternoon naps are great for when you need to stay up all night.

Thank you Dr. Cellini. I'm about to start my first night job ever and these tips were very helpful.

wow what do u do for work?

I work night shift and I have a mask like that with speakers. I love it and it seriously helps big time

Thanks for sharing all these tips! Intuitively , I figured making your day routine, into your night routine would essentially trick the body. Still easier said than done though. My first month back into night shifts gave me terrible brain fog because of diet specifically. It screwed up my sensitive gut health and it took conscience effort to fix that while working nights. From a clinical perspective, what should the diet look like? I've heard suggestions about only eating before and after your shift and not during (which is difficult due to cravings). Or eating meals like you normally would but adjusted to the schedule. As you REALLY commit to night shift, I would love to hear your thoughts on the diet aspect or routine.

My favorite Radiologist!

Commit to the night shift! Mine is a bit of a measly excuse for a night to be honest 😅 but I wake up at 2am to start to do a 3-10am shift. It's still waking up early outside my normal sleeping pattern so the tips in this video definitely helped. It also made me realise I'm actually lucky to not be doing a proper night shift and starting at 6pm like some of you! At the minute I'm trying to go to sleep at 9 on days I'm not working and wake up at 5. And then go to sleep at 7 on work days so I have 7hrs sleep, but I'm really struggling to get into proper deep sleep until 10

I worked night shifts for a year and a half and my biggest problem was going to bed at 7:30 and waking up at 12, noon. What was huge for me was light. I sleep like a rock, I can sleep through just about any noise but light will wake me up. So getting a black out curtain is definitely a must.

I work 7 on/7 off night shift. I switch by taking a short nap around midnight to 3 an then get up and go back to sleep around 11am until 5 or 6pm. I also eat dinner with my husband when I wake up! The eye mask like you shared is a game changer though. I sleep so much better when I have mine. 😍

I’ve been working 3rd for over 25 yrs. Not an expert but I’ve done pretty well on it until recently. I think age is having a big influence on how I deal with it. Few things that have helped over the years: Room darkening blinds or shades. Make the room dark. A good spouse that keeps the house quiet especially if you have kids or dogs. Lately I’ve been using noise cancelling earphones with music or podcast playing. Stay on the same schedule for the days you work. If you go to bed as soon as you come home do that every time on your work days. Don’t stay up 4 or 5 hours because of an errand or something, just stay on your night shift sleep schedule. The last one is the biggest: on your off days, go back on a normal night sleeping schedule. You’ll lose time because you’ll need a nap before your first day back but it helps to recover by getting NORMAL night sleep a few times a week. 8 hrs of day sleep is no match for even 4 hrs of night sleep IMHO

It’s hard if you get stuck where you can’t sleep and I think your mind starts racing thinking, great now I only have x amount of hours to sleep. This is probably the worst advice because eating before bed is not a good habit but if I have something to eat, I usually can fall to sleep in a half hour or so.

Yaaaaaaaay new video 😍

This video has helped me sooo much. Thanks Doc

Hospital pharmacist here, I work overnights. Luckily I have a 7 on 7 off schedule, meaning my first shift is a Monday night starting at 10PM and finishing at 9AM and this continues until Monday 9AM, and then I'm off from work until the next Monday night (unless I choose to pick up shifts at my per diem jobs). So my advice for taking control of your sleep cycle is: Go to sleep around 4-5AM the night before the first day of your night shift cycle. Stay asleep for as long as possible, ideally waking up shortly before sunset. Work out, eat "breakfast", go to work, try to go to sleep as soon as you get home. Now when you get to the end of your night shift cycle and get off work, stay awake that whole day and go to sleep 9-11PM that night allowing you to wake up at a normal morning time the next day. It also helps to live in a basement or have your sleeping area set up for minimal outside noise and no sunlight. If you're gonna have to deal with hearing phones going off all day or construction work or cars honking, you're gonna have a bad time. As for winding down, my wife usually makes me a cup of tea before she heads off to work and I smoke hookah for like 20 mins before sleeping.

Commit to the night shift! Might have to pick up a sleep mask for my night shifts as a scribe!

thanks doc. just getting some tips for my on coming 12 hours night shift

I’m on a rotating shift schedule. When I’m going into midnights for a week, I’ll take a three hour nap later in the evening to make it through the first night. I’m flexible on how long I stay up during the day based on my social/family life. I like to be in bed after I get home in the morning and be up around 5-6pm. Sometimes, I have to wait until early afternoon and I’ll sleep until 10pm. Transitioning out of my last night shift, I will take a nap after I get home for about 3 hours and stay up until that night to get back on normal schedule. I use blackout curtains, solid core door to drown noise, and a fan on high to ensure that I sleep well.

I have the same issue, FOMO. I try to love my days productively and I constantly feel out of place (new to night shift). I’m trying to learn to commit. It’s hard because hubby and I love getting up at 445a for the gym before our 8a work day. I’m trying to keep that gym schedule still but having to split sleep, with a nap after the gym is hard getting used to. I’m not a nap taker everrrrrr so this is all new to me. Surprisingly I’ve been napping well but again, just that feeling of being out of place. Thanks for the tips! I’ll be more committed and develop a routine that helps.

Graduating the police academy in two weeks and I will be working from 12-8am I’ve never worked overnights before so this is new to me

Very helpful just switching to nights

I’ve been working on a night shift schedule for about a month now, and I’m struggling to get at least 5 hours of sleep everyday. Mostly because the neighbors upstairs are making food (banging stuff), and I feel the need to try to do stuff before I go to work. I use to work a regular 9:00AM-6:00PM job, but juristically swapped to the third shift (due to better pay) I’m committed to the night shift, I don’t get tired during my shifts. It’s just really hard for me to sleep, it’ll take me an hour just to fall asleep. I also try to eat breakfast because I don’t have the chance to eat lunch because I would be asleep by then, but I do eat before I go to work. I work Mon-Thur 11:00PM-6:30AM and Sunday 6:00PM-6:30AM

I'm so conflicted. I was offered a promotion at my job however it is for the 10pm to 6am shift 5 days a week. Caught in between making sacrifices for long term benefits or stay where I'm at with no real room for advancement. Thanks for the video. You gave some good tips. I think one of the most important things for me would be making sure I still make time for the gym and get outside to take walks etc. Also the eating...I need to keep my eating habits the same regardless of which shift I'm on.

Commit to the night shift!! Im a night shift security guard. I work sunday night from 7pm to7am and the Monday night from 11pm til saturday at 7am. Im hoping your tips help! I have mild insomnia so even sleeping at night was difficult sometimes. I could never stay asleep, sometimes i wouldnt fall asleep at all or i would eventually pass out from exhaustion and just have awful sleep. So sleeping during the day has been absolutely impossible!! Especially when the monthly lady issues make sleep impossible from being unable to relieve pain. Im hoping these tips really help because for the last two weeks recently ive only been getting 2-3 hrs of sleep and im practically brain dead and almost passing out at work. I also have fomo so i feel you there, and sleep is also hindered by family obligations during the day as well. I usually try to sleep from like 2/3 until 9pm on my monday fo friday shifts. What are more meal tips for night shift? What kind of diets would be good for someone whose currently permenantly on night shift?

Thanks a ton for the info 💯

I relate to that FOMO… I always do my errands in the afternoons and like to relax at night. So when I come back to my night shift schedule (I do 12 hours, 7 days every 2 weeks), it just makes me feel like I haven’t done anything when I do my night shifts straight. But yeah, the night shifts need commitment. So I try to bundle up my night shifts then take long off-days stretches so I get to do my errands and study more continuously (I’m prepping for the USMLE). Also, on my first day off from night shift, that’s when I try to max out my day so I can revert to traditional sleep time if possible. It’s hard but it really needs discipline to keep going.

Night shift is the worst... so your tips are really useful 👍😅

Thanks for the tips. I will try all of them. It's my first time working night shifts in over 25 years. Working 6:30 PM to 7 AM. Wish me luck!! Commit to night shift!😅

You need to try Manta sleep masks. Life changing!

What do you do about days off/weekends when you're likely to miss time with your family.

Commit to the night shift! Really appreciate these vids man!

How did it go? What's your routine to get start night shift?

watching this the night before my first night shift...

"bizarrely, my bike's trailer's wheel was creeking and crunching this morning, only for me to find that, not only did someone let some of the air out, but they loosened all the spokes..."

Thank you Doc!

99% of night shift satisfaction comes from blackout curtains / eye-mask / earplugs on the weekends and having air conditioning. The other 1% you need to work out for yourself. what works for me is trying to stay up within 3 hours of your normal shift end. It is harder to stay up at home with non-ample light than at a workplace with lots of light. Only drink caffeine like you would on a day shift. water. water. water. eat like you would on a day shift. breakfast when you wake up beer before bed after work. Personally, I make sure to sleep after 30 minutes of getting home as this gives the best homework balance on nights as you wake up generally 3 to 4 hours before work. at the end of the day prioritize sleep no matter what, Fuck FOMO.
