shift schedule worries

by cyndyw on Tue Mar 18, 2008 3:16 am

I recently went to a 4-10 swing shift schedule (1600-0200 hrs.) and am wondering if I should maintain roughly the same sleep schedule on my days off. I'm having difficulty staying asleep until 11:00 a.m. or so and don't feel like I'm getting enough sleep, but am concerned that changing my sleep schedule to a "normal" one will REALLY mess me up! What to you think?
