Description
Daylight saving time starts this weekend — and if you have ADHD, that one-hour shift can hit you harder. ⏰
Many people with ADHD have a later internal clock. So when the time “springs forward,” your brain is being asked to wake up even earlier than it naturally wants to.
A few things that may help:
• Eat meals at set times
• Avoid late-day caffeine
• Exercise in the morning
• Consider sleep therapy if sleep struggles continue
Scientists are still learning what works for ADHD brains specifically. But know that if the time change throws you off, it’s not just in your head.
