Wait, I can sleep right after drinking coffee. Is it similar?

Welcome! You're possibly a self medicating ADHD person.

Otter common signs you should get checked out

do you sit there paralyzed and unable to do a task, even when you want to do it and know it needs to get done?
are you weirdly calm and effective in stressful and panicked situations?
do you get really into a hobby for a while, then drop it forever because you lose all interest?

If so, a diagnosis could be life altering.

Not trying to be a naysayer or anything, but aren't these all normal? Otherwise I'm a mega ADHD.

Theres a ton of nonsense online since being neurodivergent is cool now. Check out this legitimate self assessment:

If you can afford it, get a real test done in person!

Oh wow, didn't realize it was cool now. Where do I collect on all this coolness?
