I have ADHD and stimulants actually have a calming effect on my mind. Coffee (especially when hot) literally makes me sleepy.

So I was this person, and I didn't figure it out until later in life.

The trick is, with ADHD, caffeine will slow down your brain but it still speeds up your body (still a stimulant). So too much, and you will be tired and jittery.
