    I’ve previously read that potentially a small % of the population may be genetically nocturnal as a natural selection advantage because those people used to be the ones guarding caves from say lions at night, and protecting people inside castles whilst everyone else slept. So it was beneficial as a species to have that small %.

    Therefore it might not be something you or I can change.

      I’m nocturnal too and have also heard this explanation which I also choose to believe, entirely. You’re welcome day walkers.
