Why do deep conversations tend to happen at night?

What makes people vulnerable at this time? And what kind of atmosphere is most comforting to get them to open up?

A few reasons come to mind. They may not (all) apply to everyone, but deep conversations aren't strictly limited to late night either. I think these do contribute to them being more common before bed though.

- As work and family distractions decrease after hours, people spend more time on social media.
- People multitask during the day but start to relax and be more focused on a single thing after dark.
- Alcohol and drugs loosen the tongue and increase creativity. There are generally consumed more in the evening than in the morning or afternoon.
