My greatest tragedy is that I literally always want a nap, right up until ten pm, when I feel utterly alive and electrified.

    Oh god tell me about it.

    I’ve run basic tests on myself. Even if I’m severely sleep deprived and desperately need rest … if I can get to 10pm, there’s always a “second wind” and the psychological readiness to “finally start the day”.

    3 out of 4 adults with ADHD have a delayed circadian rhythm: https://www.additudemag.com/adhd-sleep-disturbances-symptoms/

      This is definitely me. Really infuriating when people tell you just to just sleep or it’s all self discipline.

      Remember that delayed circadian rhythm can happen for a number of reasons, not just adhd

        The difference in risk for delayed sleep schedules between those with ADHD and the general population is so substantial and the link strong enough, that it has been considered as part of the diagnostic criteria for ADHD.

    But do you actually get any work done?

    Or do you feel energized because you know the day is over so you’re free to do anything else besides what you were supposed to do?

    I find if I work out hard enough during the day it can help… Usually.

    Unfortunately due to the weather lately it’s made it pretty hard to do much exercise so my sleep schedule is getting wacky again

    The desire to be productive after 10pm is the hardest part about living in an apartment for me.

      I don’t understand. What is the significance of living in an apartment in this case?

        Not wanting to bother neighbors downstairs, mostly.

    @BeAware @adhd definitely not the only one… why is sleeping at the right time so difficult?

    I sleep about 8 hours according to the clock.
    But according to my pixel watch I only sleep 5:30-6:30 hours.

    Maybe the same for you?

    And I also have the same issue.
    A bit tired at the eyes and ready for a small nap but as soon as the clock is 10pm and weekend I will probably stay up until 2am. Easily.
