Why does caffeine tend to not affect people with ADHD, like it does with neurotypical people? For example why some ADHD people can drink 3 cups of coffee, then go straight to sleep.
In: Biology
Adhd people already are in a constant state of excess mental simulation, and caffeine basically exhausts the brain faster which allows for sleep. But it’s not good sleep though. Your body will still be caffeinated so you will be more restless and won’t have nearly as good as sleep as if you weren’t caffeinated.
Am someone with adhd.
