This fun and quick Twitter thread seeks to break down the societal stigma surrounding people getting up early, and as a result being productive. It sheds light on how some people just seemingly aren't hardwired to get up early, and crack on from there. And you know what? That's totally chill.

    Text - Syed Moin Hassan, M.D. @sye. · Mar 2 To answer @drgsreddy. A good patient history eliciting an inability to fall asleep,preference to stay awake at night & wake up late during days off & difficulty waking up early morning is indicative of a delayed CRSWD.
