Ok, so i can sleep but here is my issue. I have "ADHD" thats what "they" call it. Basically i have energy for days. Anyway during the day i am lethargic, still work hard and wake up early everyday and at about 9:00 - 10 at night i am wide awake. My brother goes through the same thing. Im wondering why this is. Does anyone else experience this? What is your hypothesis on this?
Looking for outside the box not webmd answers thanks.
A night owl or evening person is a person who tends to stay up until late at night. The opposite of a night owl is an early bird, a lark as opposed to owl, someone who tends to begin sleeping at a time that is considered early and also wakes early. In several countries, early birds are called "A-people" and night owls are called "B-people." Researchers traditionally use the terms "morningness" and "eveningness" for the two chronotypes.
Chronotype is an attribute of human beings, reflecting at what time of the day their physical functions (hormone level, body temperature, cognitive faculties, eating and sleeping) are active, change or reach a certain level. This phenomenon is commonly reduced to sleeping habits only, referring to people as "larks" and "owls" which refer to, respectively, morning people (those who wake up early and are most alert in the first part of the day) and evening people (those who are most alert in the late evening hours and prefer to go to bed late).
