n2sleep during day

[eric26]

I know you're not supposed to take melatonin during the day and drive but I am working a weird shift at work right now and getting off at around 1-2 pm from my job. I get home around 3pm after working 24 hours and dont want to sleep at all. If I took n2sleep around 3pm would it mess up my sleeping down the road?

bro if thats your sleep cycle you're fine.....use it at 3...

use it when you want to sleep. thats what it is for.

If you are using it before your sleep, its fine to use regardless of what time it is. A lot of people out there work strange hours buddy

I think there is a lot of confusion on this subject.

melatonin is our internal clock, it can be used for jet lag or to normalize our clock. you really should not take it during the day at all. it will screw up your internal clock more. at night melatonin rises and in the morning it drops naturally. so you cannot change the way we evolved

my best advice is get another job. these jobs that screw up your internal clock are horrible long term

this is why we have this supp.....to get to sleep when we cant....or to sleep at odd hours. Give it go at 2 caps, if doesnt work try 3.

this isnt some super potent sleeping drug. So daytime dosing isnt going turn you into a zombie.

Ehhhhh....I think for short term you would be ok taking it. ...but I don't think it's good to take long term for that schedule, if that makes sense. I don't agree with taking a sleep aid long term for anybody. ...you need to be able to naturally calm down and go to sleep. ..or like stevesmi said, you internal clock sleep routine will get weird. Do you drink lots of coffee late in your shift. Celery is a natural sleep enhancer...maybe give playing with diet a try

Your sleep cycle will always adjust so it's not going to cause permanant change in your circadian rhythm
