And I struggle so much in the morning trying to make myself get out of bed. ### @DistractedMama — 2025-10-15T13:33:54.046Z I like it the night time because it’s so peaceful in my house. And no one is asking me a bazillion questions . Even my dog is not following me around. It’s beautiful 🤩 ### @spicy — 2025-09-30T07:17:50.512Z Night owl ### @vetnurseadhd — 2024-05-05T21:07:10.472Z Night owl!!!! ### @ConrADHD2.0 — 2024-02-12T02:03:46.180Z Total night owl, if I go to bed earlier than one in the morning, I consider it and absolute win ### @Comfortablynumb — 2023-11-13T09:29:02.396Z Night owl for sure. I love the calm quiet aloneness of night ### @LayneJay — 2023-10-15T19:53:51.070Z Night owl.. for the exact same reason as the previous commentator - absolutely love the calm when the rest of the world (people) are sleeping. Finally some peace. ### @hizzle25 — 2023-10-13T00:38:59.637Z Night owl. Love the calm when everyone is sleeping. ### @Greylee — 2023-10-12T21:35:45.108Z Always been nigh owl 🦉 because I don’t get tired unless I lay down and take my meds. also I’m super angry in the mornings 😭 ### @gimmegrace — 2023-10-12T18:20:05.000Z I’m downright nocturnal ### @ADHDJordan1296 — 2023-10-11T15:51:17.971Z I am a big night owl I get a huge amount of energy when it comes to late at night as during the morning I have no motivation what so ever to go to work then when I'm there I slowly but surely gain the motivation once I have had a half hour break then once I'm home I end up feeling tired then bam a whole load of energy kicks in and I struggle to sleep ### @GirlMom37 — 2023-10-11T08:48:59.686Z Night owl. I don't know why exactly but I have always assumed it's bc I just don't like being around all of the people in the daytime & constantly feeling like I'm being looked at & judged by everyone all of the time. So id rather just wait it out until night to go out in public when everyone else is already at home & in bed. ### @floofypuppy — 2023-10-05T05:45:27.228Z Night owl!!! It’s 12:44 am and here I am.. I have to be at work at 7 am. Oops. I hate insomnia ### @neatpile47 — 2023-10-03T14:26:01.156Z Night since early childhood. Also my circadian rhythm operates on a 27 hour day and so I’m always fighting staying up to do more and trying to wind down to sleep. It helps to fly west for a week lol. ### @aliona :3 — 2023-10-02T15:12:08.207Z Rrrfrfr ### @aliona :3 — 2023-10-02T15:11:48.056Z Rrrrrrr ### @breeZy — 2023-10-02T05:54:37.097Z I was a night person when younger and I never slept well at night. However now with kids, am a morning person and am exhausted by mid afternoon and could happily go to bed at dinner time. My kids are all night owls though. I wonder if my sleep pattern changed as I needed quiet time to myself to think and focus and the only time I get that is when everyone else is sleeping. Which in my house is early morning to midday. ### @spiritofblizz — 2023-10-02T03:36:58.639Z I read an article somewhere saying that being a night owl is very common among those with adhd - it is caused by a delay of their internal circadian rhythm system. ### @decker8701 — 2023-10-01T22:59:38.001Z Sometimes I do my best work late afternoon/evening… then I can’t sleep ### @CometOfTheNights — 2023-10-01T22:41:53.114Z 🦉Night owl... It just happened its own. Starting from primary school years, my sleep schedule started to go out of "normal". Because I was more comfortable... And year by year, I turned into a total night owl (and this was a huge problem due to the school hours etc). Now I am 24 and taking pills for sleep to have a "normal" sleeping pattern. Because life is harder when you are a sleepless-ADHDer.
