I have had sleep troubles my whole life, when I wasn't medicated and when I am medicated. I sometimes wonder if some people are perhaps designed naturally, to be awake at night. My mind is a lot more focused and clearer in the evening into the night, I am at peak performance during these times. Think about back to ancient times...back to hunters and gatherers, the people who need to stay up at night to stand watch. What if that is still a part of human programming, even though we have evolved to where we are now. It used to be a disposition for survival. Society seems to think we should all be cookie-cutter beings, following a standard universal routine. Well, not everyone is the same. In fact, I don't know anyone who is completely the same as anyone else.
I have insomnia? I am irresponsible? I don't like to sleep? What if this is my natural design and it's different.
Just throwing thoughts out there to anyone else who is more awake at night.
