As others have said, a lot of the problems peeps with ADHD experience are also experienced occasionally by peeps without ADHD. But those with are experiencing these problems all the time.
Methylphenidate, sold under the brand names Ritalin (/ˈrɪtəlɪn/ RIT-ə-lin) and Concerta (/kənˈsɜːrtə/ kən-SUR-tə) among others, is a central nervous system (CNS) stimulant used medically to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and, to a lesser extent, narcolepsy.
Common adverse reactions of methylphenidate include: euphoria, dilated pupils, tachycardia, palpitations, headache, insomnia, anxiety, hyperhidrosis, weight loss, decreased appetite, dry mouth, nausea, and abdominal pain.[8] Withdrawal symptoms may include: chills, depression, drowsiness, dysphoria, exhaustion, headache, irritability, lethargy, nightmares, restlessness, suicidal thoughts, and weakness.
Why do I relate to all these adhd posts when I don’t have it? Note: I have narcolepsy and take Ritalin for it. Does that have something to do with it?

maybe
There are a lot of crossover symptoms between sleep disorders and ADHD, but also, yeah - Ritalin is one of the top medications for treating ADHD too.
