Acondition wherein one attempts sleep, but does not, due to distraction.
Unlike insomnia because insomnia is an inability to fall asleep due to numerous physiological or psychological reasons.
Whereas, with ADHD Insomnia, the mind becomes distracted and basically forgets to fall asleep.
"Sorry I'm sluggish today at work, Boss. Last night I had a conversation where someone asked me if sable was a dog or a cat, and it triggered a case of ADHD Insomnia. That led to asking google questions which lept distracting me. I still don't know if a sable is a dog or a cat...but I did discover this freaky gut in Norway who sings a great cover of Sultans Of Swing."
