The lack of natural light seems like it would really, really mess with me. Maybe it's possible to prepare for that with certain training, I don't know.
I'm lucky enough to have a backyard, in which I've been spending a lot of time lately.

Apparently kids in arctic regions receive “sunbathing” sessions in a dark room with UV lamps for this reason. I’ve been thinking to replicate it but haven’t been able to find much technicalities in it...

Underway was just a bit tighter spaces, flourescent only. Like knowing you were going into a really weirdly laid out half industrial half office space and you just weren't leaving for a while. (I was lucky enough to be in a rating where I was on periscope every now and again, so I had that bit of extra 'view'.)
