Are you a morning person or a night owl? I've never been an early bird - and lately I've been wondering why. This pattern in your sleep/wake cycle is called your "chronotype" and appears to be influenced by your genetics. It has some interesting effects on your health - from some people being more agreeable and proactive to others eating and drinking more. Do you notice an effect on your health? And, perhaps, have you noticed your chronotype change over time? 🌚

night owl trapped in a early bird world...
for me its early bird in a night owl world
Really sad I can feel that pain 😢
That's true.

i think we night owls are ok. hell, maybe were the wise ones.
I think that those cons for being a night owl might be more related to the fact that we live in a Day Person's world rather than that there are inherent health issues or what have you in being a night owl. If we depraved a Day Person of their proper sleep cycle, couldn't we find the same long term effects that seem to correlate with Night Owl-ness?
good thought. What else could be expected from a beautiful elf ;-)
I was just looking up some stuff on Google Scholar and found that there are some studies showing negative learning outcomes (mostly like, doing worse on performance tasks) for mismatched morning types with others implying that we'd see maladaptive behaviors in morning people later at night but drew that conclusion by testing the inverse. So the answer is probably but we don't know for certain.
Unna Stormflower tyranny of the morning birds. Almost as bad as tyranny of the right-handed.
I regret i only have but one like to give this comment! You are on to something here Unna Stormflower!
Exactly! Only certain places are open late, Morning people wake night people up for no good reason, school starts in the morning, most jobs are morning people friendly, less people are up at night due to the social stuff...
Being a night owl, I can honestly say the biggest perk of been one is that people can't bother you and you're left alone. (i guess that would be another negative for some early risers)
Carlos
Well, even early risers can get some alone time in the morning, if they wake up an hour before everyone else
I sometimes get up very early, like 4 AM or something.
That's actually one of my favourite parts of the day, it's as early as possible while at the same time actually qualifying as "morning" rather than "night". =P
I feel the same way Carlos. My roommate goes to bed early and I'm a night owl and can my crocheting done and have some peace and quiet and not have him interrupt me.
The night is just so peaceful tho
Carlos I mean yes, is easy for me to be more focus on study
I've always been a night owl. No matter what, unless I am working I will always slip back into the pattern of bed at 3 am up by 10-11am. What I find interesting though is, it seems like once it hit midnight I get a sudden burst of motivation and I want to do things that I wouldn't have the motivation for otherwise and like with the motivation as soon as it hits midnight it's difficult to switch my thoughts off so I can sleep
i always wake up at 3pm in the morning
Creuilcreuil _ ooooooo, the witching hour! Spooky! 👻
you mean 15:00
_I hate the 12 hour clock system. Especially because 12 comes before 1_
@raffking1: _in a 24-hour system, 24 comes before 1, which is twice as bad :P_
no, before 1 it's 0, it only go from 00:00 to 23:59
raffiking1 think he meant 3am......in the morning, he said....unless I'm missing something lol! 🤗
Night owl definitively, I feel much more motivated at night. If I try to wake up early (7am) and keep up with this discipline, I never feel as "brain active" as I would if I go to sleep around 3 or 4 am and wake up around 10 or 11 am. This is very interesting since, in my opinion, we are wasting a lot of potential for trying to make everyone sleep early.
Aaaaa-a-a-meeennnn!!!!!
Heh screw chronotypes I'm awake 24/7 #NoSleepGang
Savitar
Indeed !!
What is this 'sleep' that they are talking about...??
If you guys were really like this you wouldn't fucking celebrate it. You're just like the people who say they "have OCD".
A plant Issa joke
NO REEEEEEEEEEEEE
lool ur gang is not gonna live long im afraid :S
I've always been a night owl and lately, I've been wondering *why*. 🦉
BrainCraft I've been a morning person all my life, but since I started a company, I'm both at the same time xd
I've been a night owl when I was 10 and always was ever since. I'm 58. Also, the properties fit very well.
Born a morning person to two night owls. Flipped to night owl during puberty. My military recruiter assured me I'd be a morning person after bootcamp - didn't happen! I've also tended to need more sleep per day than the average person, with it averaging between 9-11 hours at different points through adulthood.
**_But particularly interesting_** is the one time in my adult life when I didn't have to interact with anyone else on a regular schedule. For those two months I had an hourly meeting once a week that I was encouraged to attend, and mostly did. Otherwise, as long as I could email in progress every few days, I was completely on my own. Other than the days with meetings, I didn't use an alarm of any sort to wake up. During that period, **_I tended to stay awake for 17-18 hours at a go, and then sleep for 8-9, so over the course of those months, I literally cycled through the clock._** Ever since, I've wondered how I could live schedule-free, but have yet to find a sustainable way to do so.
I generally lean toward being a night owl, and have been for the past five years. But I can force myself to be a morning person, and after enough time, enjoy it.
BrainCraft team night owl too. Morning is so boring.
I'm a morning person, but I define morning as anything after 1pm
✊😂
"Why do people wake up so early? It's so bright!"
"It's 11 am..."
I relate to this so well 😆
My sleep cycle is all fucked up.
Sometimes I sleep during the night, sometimes during the day.
It sort of cycles, for example, one day I wake up at 10:00 AM, the next day at 11, then 12, and so on, until I start waking up at night, and go to sleep in the morning, and then the cycle repeats.
That's probably because I'm a NEET (not for lack of trying to get a job), and I don't have forced fixed times to do things, so I can do stuff whenever I'm awake, it doesn't matter.
I do greatly prefer to be awake during the night though.
You are self-employed? I prefer waking up at morning but I frequently wake up at noon but don't sleep until midnight.
It's so strange to find a neet aspirant here ....
@@thefrustratedneetaspirant7777 Ah, damn two years ago was a long time ago. I wasn't actually a NEET, as I was studying programming on my own. Now I have a full time job.
I have always been a night owl. People told me that as soon as I get into the working world and am forced to wake up at 7am, then I would start doing it naturally, even on weekends... nope, I still sleep in on weekends, and I have been waking up at 7am for 6 years now. My dog has even fallen into this cycle of waking up at 7am on weekdays, and sleeping in on weekends lol
lol
I'm so much of a nightowl I'm basically nocturnal.
Watching this at 1.30am...
Always been more awake at night but I do still typically want to sleep before midnight. Hate mornings, the day starts at noon, before then in a zombie.
I get you bro watching this at 2 am and i'm not functional until i've had breakfast and coffee witch is usually sometime after 12 haha
Ha! 1.30am in Sydney right now!
1.37am in Brisbane right now!
3.59am on central coast, Australia, right now! Lol👍🏻
watching this from Cyprus, 4:21am.. night owls assemble
@@steliospasiardes678 Switzerland 4:11 am. Beware the night owls, early birds! The reign of the night shall begin soon!
I've been a night owl my entire life. I can remember having difficulty getting up for school even when I was a little kid.
YES.
Same for me, as well...
Night owl for sure. When i have school I have to get up early but as soon as a holiday arrives that changes. I slowly start to go to bed later and later an when school is starting I have to try and fix it.
Yay go night owls! I'd take being smart over being cooperative any day...
Hey so I'm not smart cuz I'm a morning person. Wow. I am pretty cooperative though. I'm a morning person not a night owl sadly 😂😆😆
Everyone in my family and everyone else i know is a morning person but i'm a night owl and i hate how everyone always forces me to wake up early
Im in the same situation. It sucks
I am definitely a night owl! The problem is that I also really like to wake up early. The world is made for early risers so I have adapted as I got older, and now manage to force myself to go to bed before 1am :P Life is hard xD
Sea&me - Marine stuff with Maria if u love to wake up early , most likely ur not a night owl . Night owls are people who hate waking up early and they love staying in the night and everything thats got to do without the sun . They have trouble waking up early too
What about people, like me, who can function well in the morning or night. I don't have a problem waking up early or staying up late. I do prefer to stay up late, but I have no problem with either way of sleeping.
dude same!
Michael Mittelsteadt well, there's always one jammie sod! Lol! Hope you know I'm joking, I'd love to be able to do that! 🙏
RIGHT!! whats with that, i'm the same
You people are what's known as "assholes".
Joking, I'm just jealous²
Sometimes called the "sleepless elite" they generally require less sleep and can be either
Well, that explains my 2 year old wanting to go to sleep later and later as he gets older, for the despair of my morning wife. Also explains why it was me and my brother being the only ones awake at 2am, while my sister was sleeping at 10pm.
Night Owl here. Actually I do handy work for a living and watch how to videos sometimes for hours on end an take notes. I am learning new things and new skills and most of all better ways to do what I am doing now. Doing this at night is awesome because the world is asleep and the quiet solitude is exceptional for a learning and creative session(s)!
In general I'm much more of an early bird, but I can adjust. If my friend is throwing a late night bash, then I'll take a nap in the middle of the day and not plan to do much the next day.
I am not a night owl or early bird, I am some sort of permanently exhausted pigeon
All my life I've been a night owl - for over 30 years. I have rarely had to get up before noon for work and I've been mostly working at night (at live music events).
Since I've started taking better care of what I eat and drink and got fitter and way less of a lazy slob, I've stopped wanting to stay up late and sleep until noon. I now regularly wake up around 9 AM or earlier instead of 1PM or something like that - without an alarm clock set.
Most of my depressive tendencies have vanished as well. I used to wake up every day wishing I was never born, dreading everything I had to do that day and avoiding any kind of work that I could avoid. Now I wake up in the morning, think about what I have to do or prepare for the day, then I procrastinate as long as I can, and then I do stuff.
I'm an Author and a poet. I feel most alive at night. My creativity is at its peak during the late night early morning hours. I'm definitely a happy night owl. I don't do mornings hardly ever and it's fine by me.
I especially like it when you explain everything so nicely. I wish you a kot of success and happy life
I think all throughout my childhood and grade school I was a night owl, but ever since I started (and completed) my college life, I've become an early bird. I never had a problem with 8am classes despite how everyone ever told me never to take them or I'd hate my life. I don't know why this shift happened, if it was just genetic or I trained myself to enjoy waking up before the sun does. I personally feel like I get the most out of my day when I wake up early. I get the most ours of sunlight to get things done, and just *do* things in general. I will always wake up before my alarm goes off, no matter how early I set it for. I feel liked a really seized the day. Granted, as a trade off I'm exhausted by 8pm and in bed by 9, which makes it kind of hard to do anything fun out on the town after hours.
Night owl stuck in a morning person's life here. I've been on day shift for over ten years now, and STILL hate waking up, and still feel out of it for the first few hours. Thanks for the video, glad to know it's (at least partly) genetic!
I need 7 hours of sleep to feel rested, while my wife needs 10. I couldn't sleep that long unless sedated. It would be interesting to see if genetics also plays a role in how much sleep you need to feel rested.
This was such an interesting video! Makes me feel more at ease with being a night owl.
Had to force myself to be morning bird from being a night owl
I'm night owl since I could make the choice for myself, and I hate working in the morning... And generally speaking what you said about night owls is true about me also
Left handed nightowl with depression here. The reason I'm a nightowl is simply because I've had an extreme difficulty falling asleep my entire life.
Awesome, now I have a legit scientific excuse for being late to work.
Really good video!
For the first hour or so I'm awake, it feels like zombie mode. And even when I force myself to go to bed after 1am, it doesn't make my mind shut-down.
Ive found that Im most active inbetween 4-9 am and from 4 pm to 12 am. Guess im like a Deer
Goat Box productions then I'm bambi!!! I'm the same........it's not ideal, lol! 👍🏻
That's called being crepuscular :).
An interesting video. You had an excellent concept, filming the night owl part in very low light and the morning person in bright daylight. Also, you edits were great. Don't apologize for your first cliche. It's a good one and you should go with it with confidence. Don't weaken your material when you are off to a good start.
I've turned into a night owl over the years, Which I'm not sure is a good thing. I think I'm just so interested in many things, including PBS. That's right. I should blame it on PBS.
What if all this creativity, depression issues, "bad food" issues, etc ... and the tedency to go to bed later, were just corelated to smarter persons ?
Exactly. Those studies leave more questions than they answer.
Alexis Balcerzak I have been waking up earlier and eating a lot healthier in the past 8 months; My IQ however has gone from 138 to 121, so you might be on to something.
FireBreak Your IQ didn't drop 17 points in 8 months unless you started using high doses of hard drugs, got a head injury, or are developing dementia.
I've always been a morning person. Hasn't really changed except for a couple of years in college when I stayed up late and got up late. After that, went right back to morning person.
Well, I can do both, get up early, and sleep early, or get up late and sleep late, not much difference, it just depends on the quality of sleep and how long I've slept. Sleep is really important.
“Night owls tend to eat more junk food”?Have you been spying on me?
ha ha.
Did you just assume my Chronotype? I'm Chrono Triggered.
"Chrono Trigger" is the name of a video game ;)
Master Therion Don't explain your joke!
I am might owl,
I really tried very hard to change it but caused me very low productivity.
That's why I saw this video.
My parents were always (every day) telling me to go to bed earlier, but it seemed that no matter what I did I could never do it. Now I know why 😃
Night owls hit like
I've been a night owl my whole life. Once I *thought* that I used to wake up early when I was little... my mother tells me that "early" was in fact 9am.
I'm one of those chronic night owls who has Delayed Sleep Phase Disorder... My circadian rhythm is completely out of whack with societal norms. Makes it pretty hard to function in a 9-to-5 lifestyle! Thanks for looking into this Nessy!
I'm totally a night owl. I enjoy the night shift in my internship so much and I was so active! Like never before!
Also I tend to study or work better at nights. Just as you said, during daytime is just a chronic jet lag.
I'm about half-convinced that, in a previous life, I was a bat. Totally nocturnal.
10am?? HA! I consider you a morning person. Wake me up when it's pm.
always a night owl even when i was forced to wake up early
it shifts across the time of year for me
The night owl health maleffects were like a personal checklist can't believe how accurate that was lol
Night owl. Ideally, I'd sleep from 8:00 a.m. to 16:00 but I have to go to University, so I sleep from 17:00 to 1:00 am. Not the best schedule, but at least I don't have to fight with the alarm clock and drag myself out of bed, and I can sleep 2 or 3 more hours if I need to. Since I was a kid I was terrible at waking up early to go to school, and my performance was terrible. When I became an adult I tried to sleep during the day and the change was absolute. Productivity, healthy meals, exercise, silence... no cons.
You're amazing and I hope you never stop making great videos. I am also a night owl, so is there some sort of club we can join?? :D
Better not be only for night owls😒
I'm naturally a night owl, and both those pros and cons relate to me. However, I have found that when I train myself to get up earlier, even if it's a conscious choice that goes against my natural rhythm, I find myself feeling generally happier and more social after about a month. But I find it difficult to keep it up.
I'm a night person, which was directly impacted by... school. By high school, sports + homework guaranteed that I'd be up late routinely. Then college magnified that. Staying up late used to give me headaches and make me loopy when I was tired, but then my body adjusted. Now I prefer to stay up late because everyone else has gone to bed and gotten out of my way :-D
Watching this video at 2AM, definitely a night person!
Neither a night owl nor a morning lark, I'm some sort of a permanently exhausted pigeon.
Your comment about sleep apnea piqued my attention. I learned about a decade ago I had undiagnosed sleep apnea. Having dealt with that ( CPAP) I'm able to stay up all night generally WITHOUT stimulants -- though I do like chocolate!!
Definitely a night owl here! Alas, I'm going into a field that requires extremely early hours. I love the field but the early rising...not so much. Thanks for making this and all your wonderful videos!
Night owl here. Have always been more productive late at night than early in the morning. Though the world is run by Morning people, and it tends to create a lot of problems for us night owls.
3:49 At times, random melodies sometimes with lyrics pop in my head when I was drifting into sleep.
I'm definitely a night owl, I work better at night and i usually fall to sleep at 3 Am and wake up at 9. I've been struggling to fix my sleeping pattern before I go back to college but thinking back to when I was in school, I always went in exhausted (I ended up bringing a portable coffee maker to school each day to stop falling asleep in class) . I also find that i have better reactions and my creativity peaks at 1 Am, but who knows? in your sleep deprived state you think anything average is great.
always been a morning person, and after highschool and college its been socially nigative, a lot of people, including my friends say im lame or a downer for getting sleepy at 8 pm and going to bed at 9.
its also making my Raiding in World of warcraft hard, because pretty much all guilds raid at night time :/
It was impossible for me to do a full raid. Id always get so dang wore out halfway. :\
Lol, I can stay up all night and wake up early.
@@trinitylivingston1286 me too
I've been a night owl since I was a baby :)
My mum and dad have a lot of stories how I was always active at night and slept until the late morning. It has become later and later ever since. now I can actually stay awake to the crack of dawn then head off to bed :P
I have a different period, usually, I stay awake for 24 hours and asleep for 9. but we live on a planet with 24 hours cycle, so I always have to break my cycle, which stresses me a lot.
Totally a Night Owl. I've been able to modify my sleeping habits to get in workouts and get to work on time, but it's hard to maintain. If I break my routine, in favor of my natural tendencies, it can take weeks to realign. Right now I prefer sleeping from 12AM to 8AM.
Thanks for the great episode!
when you said contact me
i just thought
"is she secretly talking to a fan thats watching?"
from how you said it and looked XD
I always went to bed around 8-10 pm and woke up around 7 am until I was in high-school. My grandmother made sure I didn't stay up late and never missed school. When she passed away I went to bed later and later in the evening, sometimes staying up past 2 am, even though I had school in the morning. Thanks to my work schedule which starts at 5 pm and sometimes lasts until 12 am, I'm at a point where I'm writing this at 7 am in the morning, I have work today and I haven't slept yet.
I'm a morning person in Uni and a night person at my parents' house! I HATE waking up late, but I feel like I need a certain amount of time to myself during the day before I can sleep - I can only get that time after my parents have gone to bed.
just keeps a succulent handy when using her laptop at midnight haha 0:15
I love the way she talks with a mouth side curve
I'm a night owl. Always have been, probably always will be. I love the peace and quiet late at night, like the the whole world is available to me and I can sprawl out like it's an empty bed
I love peace and quiet too but sorry night owl I'm not a owl I'm a bird
I'm definitely nocturnal. I find it weird to wake up at 6 am but I end up staying up past that anyway! xD
My unmedicated sleep cycle has me going to bed a little after sunrise, and no matter when I go to bed, I often have trouble getting up before 3PM.
I just enjoy listening to her accent (also she says super interesting stuff but I still think her accent is so fun)
Morning Person - In fact back when in the military my job involved 12 hour shifts where we would work 12 on 12 off for three (daytime) days then get 48 hours off then 12 on 12 off for two (nighttime) days then get 72 hours off. I do not think I ever got completely acclimated to the 'Night-Watches' they were always painful.
At one point I was in the situation where it was 12 on 12 off (days) for two weeks then 1 day off and 12 on 12 off (nights) for two weeks and one day off --- That was actually easier to do since my circadian rhythm actually shifted.
"Higher risk for depression, eat more..." yeah that pretty much explains it
I've always been a night owl as well. I think a lot of those things are correlational and not causation. That aside, I've decided recently I'm not happy with my sleep schedule. Most of the time I found myself waking up around 2pm give or take a couple hours. I started finding I was unhappy because I felt like I would be accomplishing more in life if my waking time was spent in the day rather than night. I could get plenty of non social things done in my time awake, but things that needed me to go out in the world and interact with others I had less time for. I couldn't force myself to wake up or go to bed earlier so I spent a few days reseting my schedule by staying up later and later until eventually I was on a normal day schedule. For the last two weeks I've been up before 10am everyday and most days around 7-8am. Now I just need to start accomplishing things I intended to. One step at a time I guess. Side note, I also found that camping would force me awake with the sun no matter how much sleep I got.
Night owl :D. To the point of getting a night time job.
There was a phase in my childhood when I would wake up early but now I've been going to sleep later and later.
People that go to bed later tend to have a higher IQ.
or vice versa. who knows. Anyway, it's true for me and for my daughter.
If you're actually interested look it up.
Matt.Longhurst _ trust me......you're falling on deaf ears, I think......lol! But, I may look it up! Thanks🙏
'cause they probably all tend to think a whole lot.
we dont need to look it up. Of course we night owls are smarter. And im sure all night owls agree with me 😁
Growing up when I was little I always was a night owl but my parents always been me wake up hella early and I got sick from it but when I started growing up I stayed a night owl can I feel better at night and more relaxed
LOL I've always been a morning person! For a summer I attempted to change my sleep schedule to go to bed later and wake up later because I was chatting often with my night owl friend, but on average I could never sleep past 9 AM. I usually get up at 6 and complain if I have to stay up any later than 10 or 10:30 PM
I sort of switch between these, and I typically get 8-10 hours of sleep a night. I have nights when I can't sleep till really late and days when I wake up with the sun and can't fall back asleep. Have you got an explanation for that?
I've always been a nightowl. I'm the most productive in the evenings and it's also when I have the most energy. I can wake up early in the morning, but I'm definitely way slower and don't take things in nearly as much. People always keep telling me it'll change when I get older, 'it's just a teenage thing', but I'm 27 now and it still hasn't changed, so I've much pretty accepted that my natural sleeping times are roughly between 2 am and 10 am. My dad's also a nightowl though (as is our dog), so we tend to have our best conversations (while playing with the dog) around midnight. But during the day, I do feel like I'm constantly jet lagged, I'm always tired, I get hungry at different times, it's really annoying.
It's currently 1am here and I just found the solution to a programming problem I've been trying to solve all day. According to my online project punch card I make the most progress between 16:00 and 03:00 o'clock so I'd say I'm a night owl. I am also a horrible person in the first hour or so if I have to wake up early (like 6am) and have to force myself to eat something in order to not suffer from an energy deficit 3hrs into school. It's basically been that way since I was a teenager. My sister is pretty much the same even though our parents are early birds.
So did you deliberately shoot the interior dark and the exterior bright? Under/over exposed?
I am neither night or morning. I can get get up at 5:30 AM and not sleep until Midnight for long periods. I work in the tech side of live theater and also teach theater tech at the college level. Frequently I'll work a full day at school (starting at 7:30 AM) and then go work on a production from 6 PM to 11.
I have a question, when I am living in a big city I sleep between 2,3-10 but when I am in a small town I sleep between 11-8 so am I morning or night bird?
My natural rhythm is 1pm - 7AM.
Makes sense considering I'm an adolecent male in university with two night owl parents.
Night owl watching this at 06:45 am 😅 can't sleep
I actually find a few of the facts fascinating. As a natural night owl I do find that I'm more creative when I'm forced to get up early for work and less so when I get home. Though I always attributed it to being tired from work this could be another factor.
Night Owl with obligations that try to make me a morning person. It sux. Gotta sleep through the weekend to get my 'night owl fix'.
0:23 Yes, I'm somewhere in between, I prefer to go to bed early and get up late (sleep-in) :-P
Always been a night owl. I'm 27 and still have trouble getting out of bed early, and rarely ever do if I don't have to. Especially if i'm actually remembering my dreams, which seems rare for some reason. I used to remember them all the time.
I have always been a night owl. The time i like to go to sleep is 5 or 6 am. Sadly that's often not possible.
