It’s quite hard to sleep because I always find myself tapping my fingers against the wall or rolling around instead of actually, you know, sleeping
group
It takes me a solid hour to fall asleep, and that's when I'm actually tired.

I made the mistake of getting coffee with sugar this morning, and now I'm on a caffeine high and a sugar rush at the same time. Now I'm nearly bouncing off the walls and scaring my teachers. Also, I won an award for being in a "chromance" with my Chromebook. I'm getting nothing done either. We'll procrastinate together XD

I hate coffee. My stepfather made me drink a mug of it once, and then I spent a year (or was it two?) where I got really nauseas from the smell of coffee. And no. It doesn't do a thing.
Okay does caffeine like not work for anyone else? I’ve heard that’s an adhd thing. Like all coffee does is make me shaky and then make me crash hard an hour later
I start to fall asleep and then for half an hour I'm awake and then for a few hours after that I really want to sleep but I cant

Coffee/caffeine doesn't affect me at all, like nothing happens. Caffeine is a stimulant tho, so that's why some ppl with ADHD feel calmer/more focused after a cup of tea or coffee. (Btw, I'm not diagnosed with ADHD, I've just kinda been stalking this thread hah. Everything you guys say here is sooooo relatable. )

I'm laying down, so my leg can't bounce, but my foot started going a few minutes ago and I don't know why. I had one thought about one of my stories, something for dialogue or something, and I just

Me: like 2 seconds away from sleep
Brain: Move your shoulder.
Me: No. Sleep.
Brain: You gotta or else.
Me: or else????
Brain: Yeah. Move it. (shoulder starting tingling like crazy)
Me: No. Sleep. Shut up, Brain.
Brain: YOU DID IT NOW BITCH–
Me: Oh shit. (Starts doing shoulder stretches despite it being 1 am and half asleep)
