Why Your ADHD Brain Fights Sleep (and How to Outsmart It)

Published 2 days ago • 1 min read

The Weekly Level Up

Let's level up our ADHD lives a little, shall we?

Are you exhausted all day ... only to find yourself wide awake the second your head hits the pillow at night?

​

And your brain? Oh, it’s fired up and ready to rock.

​

Thoughts start racing. Energy spikes out of nowhere. You remember you never responded to that email from two weeks ago and also, did you remember to lock the front door? And why do you have "Two Tickets to Paradise" stuck in your head?

​

If that sounds familiar, this week’s episode of ADHD Adult(ish) is going to hit just right.

​

🎧 Listen now​

Here’s what we’re diving into:

✅ Why ADHD makes sleep so freaking hard
​

✅ What happens to your brain and body when you don’t get enough sleep
​

✅ How poor sleep worsens ADHD symptoms, emotional regulation, memory, and even immune function
​

✅Tips to help you stop fighting bedtime and actually get some rest

​

Seriously — sleep isn’t just about feeling less tired. It's about helping your brain function the way it can function.

​

Cheers,
​Kim

The Weekly Level Up Let's level up our ADHD lives a little, shall we? When life ramps up and capacity runs low, we can’t do it all — and sometimes, things we love take a backseat. That’s what happened to me for the past month or so. Maybe you can relate? Here’s what went down: ☀️ Summer showed up, school ended, and with it went all the structure my brain relies on. 👀 My eyeballs are still in prism-glasses rehab — making extended screen time feel like 73 different flavors of yuck. 🧠 And life...

The Weekly Level Up Let's level up our ADHD lives a little, shall we? I recently sat down with Amy Stone on The Art of Imperfect Adulting to talk about what it’s like to discover you have ADHD as an adult — and how that diagnosis connected so many dots I didn’t even know were related.

The Weekly Level Up Let's level up our ADHD lives a little, shall we? I’ve been dreaming about this for two years — and now it’s finally happening.
