I tried caffeine before bed the other night because I read in my ADHD book that that stimulants could have the opposite effect in some people with ADHD, and help the specific problem of racing thoughts before bed(understimulation) which I get pretty often. Slept the best I had in a long time for 4 hours, then got woke up by pets and lost 4 hours because I couldn’t sleep again funnily enough; I did tea for my first test but it definitely ran short, may try a caffeinated something else next time ~~ibuprofen~~.

Edit: Caffeinated ibuprofen doesn't exist to my knowledge and probably for the best not to test it, I got mixed up making comments too early for my brain to wake up.

It’s definitely not for everyone.

Maybe less caffeine if you're so essily stimulated metabolically.
