Adderall sleep

[Etoille]

I finally agreed to try the doctor's recommendation: 20mg adderall in the morning and 20mg again at noon. Everything was fine until it wore off...now I can't sleep. In the past 2 hours I've taken 3mg lunesta, .5mg Xanax, and out of desperation, finally had a vodka/soda. I want to sleep and nothing is working. I have an important work event tomorrow, too, so I can't be without sleep.
Does anyone have any suggestions?


If this is how it's going to be on the ADHD meds, I won't take them. :-/ Not being able to sleep when I'm exhausted but have a racing mind is not something I can deal with.

It's cause you just started them. once you build a lil tolerance you'll be out no probs. Honestly weed always puts me to sleep.. also if I can't sleep, thinking about that fact makes it damn near impossible.

I try to write songs when I can't sleep, and for some reason, I always stare at a blank note screen for <1 minute and all the sudden it's morning. Best of luck.

Lie down and rest, and close your eyes and eventually you will sleep.
