Sleep
ADHD brains don't wind down on command. Sleep helps you actually get there — with nervous system wind-down routines, racing thought protocols, and sleep debt recovery.
It's 2 AM. You're exhausted. Your brain won't stop.
You're tired. You know you're tired. Your body is done. And yet — the moment your head hits the pillow, your brain fires up like someone plugged it in. The thing you said six years ago. The email you need to send tomorrow. The conversation you should have had differently. The project plan that would actually work if you just thought it through right now at 2:30 in the morning. You know this isn't helping. You literally know that. And you still can't make it stop.
ADHD is a dopamine disorder. When the stimulation of the day drops away at bedtime, your brain goes looking for it. That's why you're suddenly wide awake the second you try to sleep, why you've been a "night person" your whole life even when you didn't want to be, and why every piece of sleep hygiene advice — consistent bedtime, no screens, cool room, journaling — feels designed for a completely different kind of brain. Most sleep apps are built for people who just need to relax. You're not wired that way.
The sleep debt compounds everything. A bad night makes the ADHD worse. Worse ADHD makes the next night harder. And somewhere in that loop you start to believe you're just broken, that sleep is something other people get to have. You're not broken. You need a different approach. One that accounts for how your nervous system actually works, meets you wherever you are tonight, and doesn't punish you when it doesn't go perfectly.
What Sleep does for you.
Nervous system wind-down
A custom pre-sleep sequence that actually moves your nervous system out of high-alert. Built around your specific patterns, not a generic routine.
Racing thought protocols
When the loop starts, you have a tool ready. Brain dump, pattern interrupt, thought parking — whatever works for your brain tonight.
Sleep debt tracking
Understand your actual sleep picture without shame. Know when you need recovery and what that looks like for your body specifically.
No blue light guilt
You're using this app before bed. We know. We designed for it. Low-light mode by default. No lectures about screen time.
ADHD-aware wake protocols
Mornings are hard. Gradual alarm systems and cognitive warm-up tools that ease you into the day instead of slamming you into it.
Pattern recognition
Track what actually helps your specific brain sleep. Over time, Sleep learns what works for you — not what works in theory.
