Is it normal that i prefer darkness?

I like being in areas where there is an absence of light. I don't mind being in the light but I just prefer being in the darkness. It is just a preference that I have for darkness. Given the option I always go for as little light as possible. I take showers in the dark as well. I sit in the kitchen and eat bowls of cereal in the darkness and I can't seen anything. I sit in front of my computer in the darkness. Most of the things that I do are in low lit conditions. Is it normal?

  • Normal, I usualy do this too. I don't like how you worded this though, it sounds as if you're trying to make it sound intense when it really isn't...

      Or you might have just interpreted it as sounding intense. Maybe the person is just intense so it couldn't be helped?

    I don't like to eat in the dark. I have to be able to SEE what I am eating. ~ imo ~ missalina has the best answer.

    it sounds almost unhealthy, are you depressed? artificial light aside you should indulge in the presence of sunlight when available. its a good source of vitaminD and is a natural mood lifter and energy source. also looking at a screen in the dark is very strenuous on the eyes and eventually worsens vision and leads to headaches and migraines.

    could be several things.....you could be attracted to "dark" things(slightly gothic in your own special way), you might like the dark because you feel less tired in it( i know i do), or you might just like it. who really gives a sh!t, theres nothing wrong with you man, just keep doing what your doing because its YOU, and if YOU like it then whats wrong with that?

    The darkness is good, but sometimes I want some light to come in. Pretty normal other than the shower thing.

    Yeah that's fine, sometimes the light is too bright and it gets uncomfortable. I guess it really depends on the mood, But I like it dark too on occasion.

    Now, imagine Is It Normal was like a school and you're the speaker in a classroom. Imagine saying this out loud to people. I think it would be hilarious, the way it was written makes me giggle. (Not a bad thing.)

    It's normal, I prefer being in darkness most of the time. It just makes me feel more relaxed.
