It's 3 am and I'm currently doing just that. It's the moment where the world stops for a couple of hours and no one expects anything from me. My phone is not going to ring, no one is going to send me an email or expect an answer. It's weirdly peaceful
It’s not just lacking influence, it’s being unable to recharge due to the environment.
I thought I was a night owl until I spent a month and a half in a solitary space. I just needed the space and time to recharge my batteries, which wasn’t really possible where I lived at the time.

Can I ask how you found that solitary space? Looking for something similar.
As I’m single and able - my favorite thing is renting an apartment for a month somewhere far away. I spent a month and a half in Thailand this year which was dirt cheap compared to a local Airbnb, even with a 10 day quarantine. I was bored as many things were closed but incredibly refreshed by the end.
Airbnbs also work, having enough space to have a “cave” or study which is just yours to control access to also can work.

Not the GP, but what works for me is taking long, low-effort hikes around a small resort town in the mountains.
I absolutely do that, and I noticed that I do it to compensate for 'autonomy deficit', as I dubbed it.
When my day was dictated by external demands, I play PC games in the evening, because they provide the illusion of autonomy and control, and because "I'm doing what I want to do" and having "me time" which I was lacking during the day.

This is probably a thing, but to me it is more about having the house to myself when everyone is asleep. So it's also an introvert thing IMO.
I would say this is true. But personally the late night hours is a time when the world seems to stop and I'm able to be in my own space. I don't use social media so I don't have to worry about notifications from those apps. But I also don't have to worry about calls or texts. I am able to relax and be at peace.

I think this is exactly what the definition conveys. I had this "night owl" schedule when I was busy all day. Once I was able to have free time during the day, it became less interesting or even less than a need.
