WHY IS IT ALWAYS LIKE THAT ๐ญ
dunno about the anxiety part. But the creativity part, I always assumed it was bc the "filter" that keeps ya down finally got sleepy, leaving you free to self-actualize. The specifics probably vary by individual.
The mechanics are similar. All the conscious guards I've put against anxiety are down and they start creeping in...
because you dont actually have to actualize any creativity late at night. you can leave it tomorrow when you wont do it.
But I DO act on the creativity and the problem solving, and the researching and the everything else I had 16 hours to do and only just got my brain in gear now it's bedtime!
oh i thought everyone was like me
