ADHD reframed as a circadian rhythm disorder
Original: ADHD as a circadian rhythm disorder: evidence and implications for chronotherapy (2025)
A 2025 paper in Frontiers in Psychiatry argues that ADHD should be understood partly as a circadian rhythm disorder, reviewing evidence that disrupted sleep-wake timing contributes to symptoms. The authors say this opens the door to chronotherapy — timed light exposure, melatonin and adjusted schedules — as a complement to standard treatment, a framing now drawing wide attention online.
Why now: The paper's suggestion that ADHD could be treated by targeting sleep timing rather than only medication challenges conventional thinking about the condition.
