Has anyone developed the skills to handle their adhd well?

So here I sit its been a year and I still cannot sleep.

It's 4:30am now, got woken up by the left over energy created by the beginning of the universe, or noises in my ears, take your pick.

I don't actually believe you've not slept for over a year. I think that must be an exaggeration. If you hadn't slept for a week you be mad by now, so imagine how crazy you'd be after a year, or dead? Or are there degrees of dead? I've been thinking about your comment for the past 2 weeks or so, maybe that's the noise in my ears?

There's an anti (something) drug I used to take, damn forgot it, anyway it's side effect is it makes people really really tired and then you just sleep, well I do anyway. It's ideal for people who think they might overdose on sleeping preparations, as no matter how much they take all they do is sleep. Actually it's so potent the possibility of staying awake long enough to overdose is pretty low. It's best to take it whilst in bed, removing the possibility of nodding off on the way to bed. The landing could be pretty rough, depending on what you hit.

But I expect you do sleep, you just can't remember it, possibly because you have AD/HD? But watch out for that noise left over from the beginning of the universe, it's really annoying.
