If I don't overshoot my planned sleeping time by 1 hour doomscrolling, I'm usually sick.

I thought reading is actually often recommended though instead of all those other activities. Knitting too. Relaxing things like that.

It might be a specific “stay alert” trigger for some, but not generally.

The thing about ADHD is that it is going to include a large portion of those "not generally" covered by that common trait by definition.

I guess it’s one of those “on a spectrum” things — for me, an ADHD person, reading before bed works.

It’s just other things mentioned in the post, like movies, games, are stimulating and not recommended before sleep even for neurotypicals, and even they still can’t live without screens before bed, that was my point.
