This is weird.

I’m friends with a doctor (med student until recently) who I remember telling me about 5 years ago as a fun fact that adhd is somewhat related to sleep regulation, that the tendencies of adhd people (hyperfocusing on topics, fidgetting, etc) are mostly compensating behaviors to maintain wakefulness.

I remember because I’m actually diagnosed (very recently). Is this not common knowledge?
