I've been on 12 hour rotating shifts for 32 years. 2 weeks of graveyards and then two weeks of dayshifts. My sleep rhythm is now normally messed up.
What helped me through it, and still helping, is keeping something in my system.
Bananas, pretzels, rice krispies, and peppermint teas.
And exercise, meditation, & and just trying to keep a positive attitude.
Lots of peppermint tea.
Good luck!
