I've been on adderall xr 10mg for about a week now, i feel like it's helping some but its really getting to me that i have trouble sleeping every night. at first i think i took it too late in the day so now i take it at 8 am and here i am still unable to sleep at 2 am. will this go away? anything i can do to help it?

      I'm going to see about IR instead of XR, I'm getting used to this now and taking melatonin is helping me sleep but I feel like i need a higher dose of adderall to function during the day so if this gets raised ill prob have the sleep problems again

      I’d give your body another week or so as it’s still trying to make sense of it. My suggestions: continue taking it as early as possible, avoid caffeine after 5pm , try to start going to bed earlier than usual to start the wind down process earlier so you can sleep sooner. I like to listen to white noise or beach waves & meditate myself to sleep.

      IR might be a better fit for you? Personally I have to take a 20mg XR in the mornings and 5mg of IR in the early afternoons on my work days to get anything done. 😭 Then i crash about 9 pm.

      I had the same issue so I switched to 2 different IR doses per day and it fixed the problem as long as I didn’t take it past 3pm
