How many of you also experienced bruxism

Has anyone been given a reason to believe that that is unknown element of ADHD?

I grind my teeth but I think it is more related to my ADHD’s BFF anxiety.

My daughter grinds her teeth at night but I constantly just clench my jaw and tens up in sholders, stomach and hands/feet when awake and sleeping, I also frown with my eyebrows when sleeping and for some reason I hold my breath when doing things as if I can't focus on breathing at the same time 😅 It all happens without me realizing it 🤷🏻‍♀️ I've also noticed that several people in my family do the same, all diagnosed with ADHD

I never grind my teeth because I absolutely despise the feeling of grinding teeth and probably because of my health anxiety or sensibility with some specific feelings... 😅 From what I know it's related to stress and anxiety, so it could be to our easily stressed minds.

I grind my teeth so hard when I sleep that I have to get my mouth piece fixed every 3 months… I never thought it could be related to my adhd… 😮

My husband is diagnosed Tourette’s/undiagnosed AuDHD/ASD… he has been known to grind his teeth at night, especially, but sometimes I’ve noticed him do it during the day when he’s been super stressed. I can say I definitely clench my jaws but don’t think I’ve ever ground my teeth; I believe my mom clenches her jaws and has had a tendency to grind her teeth (undiagnosed ADHD but absolutely, 100,000%, has it), but I haven’t been around her enough lately, unfortunately, to witness if she still does it.

I wonder if it could be counted as a kind of stimming?

Maybe as a form of hyperactivity (you can put energy into that) or because ADHDers experience more stress in this neurotypical world than others but don’t quote me on that

Absolutely quoting you on the latter half of your statement. 😆 Because preach! 🙌🏼
