I Slept 4 Hours… and My ADHD Got BETTER?

Send Me A Text Message

Last night I stayed up until 3:30am watching the Super Bowl and only got 4 hours of sleep… so I expected my ADHD to be worse than ever.

But the opposite happened.

My brain felt quieter. I could remember things. I stayed on track in lessons. I even remembered what question I was on when I turned the page — which NEVER happens.

For a few hours, it honestly felt like my ADHD had disappeared.

In this episode, I talk about what that “calm brain” feeling was actually like, why being overtired can sometimes feel like better focus, and why it’s a total trap if you try to chase it.

If you’ve ever had a random “good brain day” and thought

“Why can’t I be like this all the time?”

this episode is for you.

Real talk about ADHD, tired focus, brain noise, and learning to work with your brain instead of fighting it.
