I worked as a night doorman for a couple of years and also suffered a shift in sleep time. You've got to break the back of night insomnia.
Exercise and sleeping aids are definetly necessary. Ask your doctor for Ambien, it really helped me. Make sure that your bedroom is cool during the night, remove all books (exept maybe boring ones),computerm games and TV from your bedroom. Try to stay awake during the day even if you did not sleep at night. Exercise in the morning. Bring down your temperature in the evening (cold shower or a walk in cold weather).
If you still can't sleep read something boring.
I took me a year.
