This would mean no matter how much sleep, it's never enough.
By the way, there is considerable evidence that a significant number of ADHD cases in children and adults is really due to poor sleep with apnea being a major factor (http://www.webmd.com/sleep-disorders/sleep-apnea/news/20060821/sleep-apnea-kids-brain-power http://www.webmd.com/sleep-disorders/sleep-apnea/news/200608...).
- coglethorpe 17y agoI was diagnosed with sleep apnea and can't tell you how much a CPAP machine has helped me. I'd wake up feeling worse than when I slept, and it's hard to pay attention in that condition, which might be the ADHD connection.
- cglee 17y agoWhich CPAP machine do you have? I haven't been officially diagnosed, but I'm pretty sure I have sleep apnea. I'd be willing to try out a decent CPAP machine to see if it helps.
- ars 17y agoI was going to post the same thing. Being that tired in the morning is probably sleep apnea. Do you have headaches in the morning? Wake up more tired than when you went to sleep? Sleep apnea can also cause depression, weight gain, and memory loss. And weight gain can cause sleep apnea.
