It matters a little bit sometimes. Like if you’re abusing Benadryl and literally melting your brain to sleep. Not good, that does matter. Or abusing alcohol or other drugs to get tired enough to sleep and avoiding seeking actual medical help. But tv/music/sound machines, totally 100% fine (and light therapy for adhd is a real validated medical practice, they make a specific type of light box and everything. Worth a try!)

By the way a private room is something you can usually request though your university with disability. For example I have autism so i need a reliable quite place to decompress and not be social for a while

(context: I ruminate a lot at bedtime and I guess the TV was just something I used to calm myself down)

no yeah that makes sense! I was more so referring to things that might “annoy” other people - like sound machines

The way I want to do this but know they’ll say no because I don’t have a official diagnosis 🫠
