Exhausted AF but Can’t Sleep: Navigating ADHD Bedtime Struggles


Listen Later

If you’ve ever been so tired you could fall asleep standing up — only to hit the pillow and suddenly your brain won't shut the f*ck up — this one’s for you. ADHD and sleep don’t exactly get along, and in this episode, we unpack why falling asleep, staying asleep, and waking up on time can feel like Olympic-level challenges when you have ADHD.

We'll talk about:

✅ Why sleep deprivation hits ADHD brains extra hard.

✅ The most common sleep struggles ADHDers face.

✅ How poor sleep affects your brain and body.

✅ ADHD-friendly tips to get better rest — without turning bedtime into another overwhelming chore.

Because good sleep won’t make your ADHD disappear — but it will make everything else suck a whole lot less.
