ADHD VS CAFFEINE - 🧠☕️ this is how caffeine impacts ADHD. The stimulant creates a negative effect in the body and creates a sleepy feeling.

If you have ADHD and are on medication, that medication will be some sort of stimulant.

Do you drink caffeine to go to sleep? 🤔

I'm not diagnosed but coffee literally puts me to sleep. One time I wanted to pull an all nighter and I drank a red bull to help with the tiredness... Dude, I fell asleep head first onto the book 😂

I’ve noticed the hyperactivity has waned as I age. ASD seems more prevalent now. Not wired during the day, but when I try to sleep it pops up, and the coffee nap is real.

moderation can let it have the moderating effect similar to how certain prescription stimulants calm and mediate for many folks.

It’s so nice to read these comments, coffee is usually over praised in my opinion especially among neurotypicals and the truth is it just doesn’t work for everyone, I get an almost instant crash where I get so tired or if coupled with medication I get overly anxious…my doctor did not recommend consuming meds and coffee together, but if you enjoy the morning cup it’s a tough ritual to kick even if it’s having adverse affects…I know I would function better without it, and yet I still drink it…like many habits that aren’t ideal, like staying up late lol

Caffeine had very little effect on me until I started my meds. It wore off pretty quickly as I adjusted to them though lol. A redbull might give me a small boost for about an hour.

Before I was diagnosed, I had to drink a pop to go to sleep. Now I am on Concerta and sleep like a rock. 😂
