How to Get to Sleep When You Have ADHD

I'm in complete admiration of this. I recently read a book with a similar topic, and it was astonishing. "Better Sleep Better Life" by William Brook

Smoke weed

Why the stressful music in the background? I don't even know what you're saying. 😢

Sorry, but you lost me at "leave eletronics out of your bedroom". That's the place where I keep my notebook 80% of the time!

Undiagnosed watching this at 11pm with work at 6am tomorrow...... what's next???

my brain dump make me not fall asleep it even keeps me up longer!

I use mirtazapine 7,5 mg. Works for me.. I work days and nights, most workdays start at different times so i cant have a sleep schedule.

OR sleep when you're actually tired and stop worrying about fitting in with everyone else 👍 (Jokes aside I know this is only possible if you're lucky enough to have financial and social freedom to do so, living in a neurotypical world sucks sometimes)

thc helps me sleep but i wake up tired

I have ADHD and I use medical cannabis in order to be able to sleep

Watching this while trying to go to bed

Your smile and mood is contagious 🙂

I've never been able to get to sleep without laying there for over an hour or more

Has anyone here tried a weighted blanket for adhd and better sleep? What did you think?

Do you have another sleep app recommendation? Looks like "to bed no longer exists. I love your channel!

Coffee❤❤❤❤ I did a coffee and I finally slept

Amitriptyline (prescribed) 5-10 mg before bedtime. Sometimes wake up 2-4am anyhow, in which case coffee (yes) and electronic stuff (sometimes my best time/state for accomplishing such work).

Metaphorically, I think it's like climbing out of a swimming pool in order to dive below the surface, too buoyant to just do that from the surface. Works for me, anyhow.

I figured out i wake up with light when my roommate wouldnt open the blinds in the morning, and then would just turn on the light at 3pm, leading to me often waking up at 3pm 😭

Thank you so much for helping me.

I have ADHD and that happens to me a lot and also I figet in my sleep a lot

I tried the sleep hygiene thing but it’s just so boring 🥱 I’ll just carry on falling asleep at 1am and waking up exhausted for the rest of my life

This video sucks

Me who watched this at 2:15 am at 2x speed to get back to god of war videos

Liked for "...and other stuff." 😉👍

the annoying part: I do not get sleepy early *but*... daylight wakes me up no matter what!!! so, I cannot really sleep late, but cannot really get to bed earlier :(

What is a brain dump?

Any updates on this topic? And the lamp?

Oh wow! So teeth grinding is really a thing with ADHD? My girlfriend said I grind my teeth in my sleep sometimes.. she says it’s like my teeth a squeaking and it drives her mad, I never remember her waking me up to stop me but apparently it happens 2 or 3 times a week. There’s so many things this channel has brought to my attention that I genuinely do and thought everyone did that are something a person with ADHD would typically do.

I'm not against this, but you have to understand how men, in particular single men, put themselves to sleep. This is a thing.

😢 oh my! 0200-1000 is my ideal sleep, but it’s just not socially acceptable! My whole life people told me I was a freak!

I sure am glad that 2nd button got itself back in place. I was totally distracted.

Would you nuns laying me know more about your background? Did you study psychology, psychiatry or something else? Or is the content of your videos based on your personal experience? Thanks

Melatonin and Mirtazapine changed my life after decades of life destroying crippling insomnia. Gone!

Also sleep hygiene, slightly cooler sleeping room that's kept (relatively) tidy and mentally conditioned for only sleep

And lighting... avoid bright lights at night.. I have lights timed to move towards red at night which combines mental conditioning and red light being good for sleep.

I also use a smart Samsung watch for monitoring sleep quality for positive feedback. Initially REM sleep was off the charts like catching up on decades of sleep but now it's pretty solid every night.

And I just maintain a strict routine.

After decades it's just not an issue anymore.

how does a parent help thier child if both have ADHD

genuinely amazing advice & I thought I knew everything already

Oh hi it's 9:30am and of course I haven't slept yet because that's been my whole life and I just thought it was because INSERT TWO THOUSAND REASONS IT ISN'T

Is a brain dump in this context writing e y thing your thinking of down before bed? Wouldn’t this just generate more thoughts?

What is a "brain dump"?

I literally just lay there with my eyes closed until i sleep

Um ok then..
Sleeping is the easy part dang it.
It's impossible to get employed the moment you explain your mental health conditions.

Easy peasy. That really cool project you’re thinking about? That thing that’ll be so awesome to do?
Think about the details!


You’re welcome!

Watching this at 3am. Gotta rewind to the start for the 3rd time though, as the first time I was still deep in my thoughts and the second time I started to write this comment as soon as the video began.

Weighted blankets.... are also a big game changer.

If you use screens a lot I highly recommend getting a programmable blue light filter (flux for windows redshift/blugon on linux/bsd mac/ios idk look it up, android: latest versions have one built in) I didnt notice how much it worked until I forgot it existed, it broke and I stayed up a lot later than usual then fixed it the next they

what a stunner.
