https://www.reddit.com/r/hangovereffect/ https://www.reddit.com/r/hangovereffect/ This sub-reddit is dedicated to people who've noticed this effect for ADHD and probably depression as well. Drinking alcohol somehow causes the same 'reversal' of symptoms, either motivation or other mood problems. Lots of discussion as to what causes it - and questions/theories on how to reproduce without alcohol. Alcohol causing sleeplessness, or sleep that's not the usual quality might be an explanation.

I have ADHD, did never tried it with alcohol, but sleep deprivation works. I used it when working on important projects with deadlines. You kind of feel like in a parallel universe after a couple of a day if it's a interesting subject for you, ADHD gives you hyper focus, and sleep deprivation gives you this energy to push thru. It's like you don't even need the medication. If you combine it with ADHD medications it's like delirium. But anyway it comes all crashing after couple of days and you have to pick yourself up. I did it for import projects, but don't recommend it.

  I definitely remember a couple times in school pulling absolutely heroic crunches to get a semester's worth of work done in a couple days. Worse one was Freshman year finals week, didn't sleep for just shy of 4 days, fueled by a mountain of caffeine, amphetamine, and sleepless delirium. During day 3 I started wearing an eye patch so that I could give each eye a temporary rest from the strain. Finished everything, flew home, and slept for 18 hours straight.

This is interesting, I have adhd and - other than the headache - I like the doziness that a hangover brings, now that I'm almost 50 though they do tend to be multi-day events so I don't drink as much. Some people with CFS/ME also report that some symptoms are much better when they are sick with a cold or flu.
