I pray that this becomes more well known and accepted. For as long as I could remember, I have been uncomfortable (to say the least) with a normal sleeping schedule. School life was literally the worst, having to wake up at 8am. And this stuff has to be genetic. My mother has it, and so does my sister. I have also heard anecdotes from my mother about her father struggling to sleep at night as well.
As a night owl, I feel blessed that I have a flexible work-from-home job. If I was forced to get up at 6-7AM and travel, I'd be sleep-deprived for years. So hopefully with more companies offering permanent WFH options, this is going to become more well-accepted.
This is truly a blessing. On my last job with normal working hours, I would be sleep deprived for weeks on end. I would literally sleep all day on the weekends. It was the worst, and I could only do it for 4 months.
