I recall there was another study that observed sleep deprivation being associated with alleviation of depression symptoms, so I wonder if the same psychobiological mechanism is at play here (if waking up early could be scientifically considered as a mild form of sleep deprivation). I also notice most of my peers working remotely and myself included tend to wake up later in the day and I wonder how much if any of the widespread miasma during lockdowns/mandated WFH period could be attributed to this phenomenon -- there are plenty of confounding factors but I think it would be worth investigating further.
