What time of day is most comforting to you?

[bubo]

I was reading The Body Keeps The Score and the book goes over how the therapist spent some time with college students and in the nighttime they'd vent to him about the terrible acts that was committed to them during childhood, the book also goes over a little how many feel more comforted during nighttime. With this information in mind: i wanted to ask everyone on the thread what time of the day/night is most comforting to them cuz' even though the book goes over nighttime specifically i've also seen threads on this very same site saying how the nighttime scares them. (That, and fear of the dark is one of the most common fears in human beings, especially children.)

in case you wanted my opinion: i think nighttime, around 3:20 is most relaxing. The atmosphere of being completely alone and in darkness brings some peace to my mind. I don't care much for nature or other people (antisocial) so i like times where no one is awake to bother me with their presence, and i don't mind not getting to see the trees or anything like that very well.

In my case, the only thing that I find comforting is the thought of no longer existing, but I have always preferred the night time to the day.

Nighttime, definitely. There's so much more pressure and commotion during the day, it's loud, bright, more people are out and causing problems like they do... nighttime is just calmer all-around. Not that I can leave the house or anything anyway because of how ill I am, but still... I've always preferred night over day.

Watching the sun go down lil by lil is very comforting to me.

Sun rises are pretty but once that ball of hellfire is up in the sky my anxiety increases.

No doubt it's night time...idk if my Circadian Rhythm is off (probably is) but I always have more energy at night.

Less active too since everyone is settling down for the night which leaves more time for myself.

I would say nighttime since that is traditionally the best time for me, but mornings are full of so much possibility; I enjoy that if I get enough sleep.

Nighttime in a sense where that's the only socially acceptable time for me to sleep, and sleep is the only time where my mind is silent.

It use to be the morning but now it's the night because less people are out and can't see me. I wish all 24 hour grocery stores were open again so I could shop in peace and quiet.

Mornings, I really don't know why.

Mornings My apartment gets direct sunlight in the morning and it's really beautiful. The air is also fresher and it makes me feel hopeful about the possibilities of the day to come, plus I love my morning coffee It feels most relaxing yet energizing at the same time

The couple of hours before dawn, when I begin my daily reading and writing.

Night. I've always been a night owl for some reason and I have more energy during that time. There's been many times where I'm tired during the day, but as soon as the sun goes down and darkness sets I'm brimming with energy again.

100% nightime around 12am-2am. I feel more comfortable both inside and outside the house because I know that other people are not as active. Similar feeling with winter vs summer.
