Is insomnia a really common problem for adhd sufferers?
8 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Not uncommon: Coming up on 25 years of experience treating adhd individuals and i can tell you it is fairly common. Trouble winding down can be a real issue and sometimes taking stimulant meds too late in the day can be an issue.
