I have trouble with night because it's so dark

and quiet, there's nothing "usual" to distract one, nothing happening in the street (can't see much if it does), no meals to prepare or TV shows and one is a bit tired but not sleepy and just doesn't feel great or want to be there. I keep the temperature really low so I can breathe better and so, going downstairs and sitting in my usual chair I'm cold and miserable and my cat won't leave me alone but I'm allergic to him so don't want his hair on my pj's, etc.
The only thing that helps me is realizing it will be a bit better in the morning and my boredom :-) I don't want to be there (up at night) enough so eventually I get back to sleep, even if it takes just dozing and thinking stupid thoughts for awhile.
