hey mike,
i'm exactly the same way. i have been a "night owl" for as long as i can remember -- NEVER a morning person!! -- but my sleep "schedule" has gotten more extreme over the years as i became more depressed. my usual schedule is to sleep from sometime in the morning -- 5, 6, often 7 or 8 am, and sleep all day. for example, it's about 7pm for me in CA and i just woke up a few minutes ago. i like the night because, as you said, i can be alone and no one will hassle me... feel as if i am constantly holding my breath in anticipation of incoming stressors... when soemone says my name, my heart jumps, because i assume they are going to say something bad. at night i feel like i can breathe again. i can cope with 'life' in the only way i know how and try to stay sane without judgement.
