    True, but I never drink coffee and could drink one right now and go sleep. The same when I was prescribed methylphenidate, straight to sleep. A non ADHD brain would be going 100mph.

      Knowing that, this might be the best evidence that I am not ADHD I’ve heard, lol.

        AuDHD is a big bag of symptoms that everyone pulls from a random amount of times, it’s perfectly possible to pull enough symptoms to get diagnosed with ADHD yet simply not have gotten the one that makes caffeine work differently on you.

        I wouldn’t take mine or others experiences as the norm, if you’re diagnosed I would discuss with your psychologist to be sure either way.

          You are 100% right, and I know it… But I’m bad at taking care of health stuff, going to doctors, etc… I’ll try, that’s the best I can say. :)
