Unless your brain gets a calming and mellowing effect from caffeine. Many ADHD people have that. Personally, I sleep very well to better with a little bit of caffeine but I can drink a Bang or other high caffeine energy drink and still zonk out without any struggles and sleep comfortably. It doesn’t stop my sleep, but can help me be awake if I want to.
(Half life still exists, I’m just talking about the whole “can’t sleep with caffeine” thing)
Same here for the most part, and I’ve been told a few times that it might be a sign of ADHD. I also have a low resting heart rate (low 40s), and I wonder if that plays a role.
I used to have barychardia too but only in the low 50s. Got it down to 30 once during an experiment in my oceanography class. That was actually kinda painful.
When I was running quite a bit, my resting heart rate dropped into the 30s in the early morning hours (while sleeping). I can’t say that I’ve experienced 30 with my eyes open though - that had to be an interesting feeling.

Adderall too. My buddy with ADHD would take his right before a nap lol

Yeah it was a little weird but felt like each pump was harder so it made my chest hurt a little.
