    If I don’t put on a decent to good movie I’ve already seen several times AND brown noise (not to be confused with the theorized Brown Note), odds are I don’t fall asleep for several hours if at all.

    Sleep advice and other such “lifehacks” are seldom very ADHD-friendly and can be borderline ableist at times.

      Yes, I usually watch tv or a movie in bed and it also has to be something I’ve seen before so I’m not kept awake wanting to see what happens next. Also it has to be not too funny, not too sad, or make me just too happy to see, etc. Interesting enough for me to want to watch it at all, boring enough for me to fall asleep quickly. It can be tricky sometimes.
