I had the same problem, I was sleeping only every other night and there were a few times I was up for 2 looooooong nights. I am in nursing school so this was not going to get it. It wasn't the Adderall = it was the antidepressant. I was taking Effexor along with Adderall XR and that was too "activating," it was giving me really bad anxiety and racing thoughts. I couldn't sleep. Nothing would knock me out. I tried benadryl, good sleep hygiene, two glasses of wine before bed, Klonopin, Lunesta, Ambien, Restoril, trazadone, seroquel. Nothing.

So my pdoc changed me to Adderall IR 20mg/3times a day and put me on Lexapro. Same thing. I have a really good pdoc and he wanted to take me off the Lexapro and try something he had been hearing about from his colleagues. Neurontin. WOW! The Neurontin slammed my anxiety to the ground and SPANKED my depression. So...I take 300 mg/neurontin 3xday, and the adderall IR 20mg/3x day. Perfect combo.

Good luck.
