As a guy without ADHD this has always amplified my drinking. I can get to sleep while trashed. Turns off the mind. In my 50s I’ve tried to sub geeky audiobooks like the Aeneid or true crime…not always effective.Sometimes the book will end leaving me in silence and if I wake in silence I might as well be up. It’s a shitty thing to go through. Especially your entire life.
Is this exclusively an ADHD thought…?
Many ADHD symptoms aren’t exclusive the ADHD. Just like not everyone who has a tummy ache has stomach cancer.
It’s a lot more common in people with ADHD. ADHD people have a much higher chance to have sleep disorders than typical people.
