In answer to your questions:
> is there something negative that you associate the nighttime with? Lack of sleep since I am a mom of 4 kids under 10 yrs.
do your activities change to less pleasant ones for you at night? Not really.
are you less or more active mentally or physically at night, and dislike this?
Probably pretty tired at least. or is there some conflict at home, which you don't like?
Just the chaos of having 4 kids.I really think that it has something to do with the daylight since I remember feeling like this since I was a kid. I would try to stay outside until every ounce of daylight was gone or if I was in the house I would dread having to turn the lights on. I actually can't stand artificial light. But what else can I do when I already do the light box thing. I guess I could go broke and buy one for each room in my house but the good ones are definetly not cheap. I've often wondered if there was some neurotransmitter that was higher in the morning that wore down over the course of a day. It really doesn't matter whether I'm home with all the kids going crazy or home alone with nothing to do so I really don't think that it is stress related. I'm definetly getting nervous with the up and coming shorter days of winter on the way. Is there anywhere in the world where the days stay longer than the nights? Maybe I could move?!!! LOL
