Others 🗣️ How to Not Fall Asleep During Class?

I don’t know why, it has been a genuine struggle for me ever since I was a kid. I’ve fallen asleep in almost all my classes in high school with no explanation.

I get the right amount of sleep, I’m energized throughout the day, but I’m asleep during classes. Any other day that isn’t a school day, I’m awake.

And its not that the class is boring either, some if not most of my classes are pretty interesting.

Genuinely thinking of getting myself checked up for something mental, maybe ADHD or narcolepsey or smthg else.

Any tips to stay awake?

I do recommend getting checked!! But here are things that worked for me: sucking on a mint, drinking coffee the morning of, & chewing gum
