The thing that convinced me my ADHD diagnosis was correct was taking my prescription stimulant and then taking a nap. See also coffee: I’ve found no correlation between my last cup of the day and when I get to sleep. I’m also incapable of drinking enough coffee to make me jittery, not even when my office had an all-you-can-drink Keurig stand.
I remember when I used to pull all-nighters, I came to think of caffeine as a trap. If I was on 18+hrs of no sleep, 1 energy drink and I’d be passe out in 10 minutes.
Why is it so hard to get into peoples heads that one of the most common symptoms of ADHD is abnormal reaction to stimulants?
