its really weird to see all these articles about how people who have ADHD have sleeping problems but the issue I have is that if you look at it as a matter of your circadian rythym being out of sync? of COURSE you\u2019re not going to be able to sleep. we don\u2019t say people who can\u2019t fall asleep at 4 pm and sleep 8 hours have insomnia, because that\u2019s not a normally agreed upon time to sleep and its not your bodies time to sleep. if you tell someone to go to bed at 10 and they can\u2019t sleep till 3 am sometimes in just not insomnia. people with ADHD are often wired to sleep from 4 am to 12 pm ish because of the delayed onset of melatonin but if you let us go to bed at the time we need? most of us actually sleep pretty well and consistently. <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

wAIT THIS IS AN ACTUAL THING THAT EXISTS<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\u201cFor most adults the onset of melatonin is around 9.30 pm; in ADHD children compared to controls this occurs at least 45 minutes later, and in adults with ADHD even 90 minutes (van der Heijden ea, 2005; van Veen ea 2010). After melatonin onset, it normally takes 2 hours to fall asleep, but in adults with ADHD it takes at least 3 hours (Bijlenga et al, 2013<\/a>).\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Look at me awake at 1:47 am and reblogging this post. <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

So I\u2019m actually trained in therapy for addressing insomnia and one of the things we learned is that a good chunk of sleep problems are societal disorders – as in they WOULDN\u2019T EXIST as problems if society didn\u2019t assume everyone was on the same circadian rhythm and that being up and working 9-5 was mandatory\/normal. Blew my mind and made so much sense. You are not the problem, society is literally the problem. <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
