Is this common in ADD/ADHD? please help!!!?!
Question: ok yesterday was my first day taking Adderall. i was diagnosed with this about 2 days ago well at least thats when i found out i had ADHD and yesterday i woke up at 7 am for school so i took the pill and was up for a long *** time like 21 hours. i know it said i was supposed to lose sleep but dam. right now im tired but cant go to sleep cause i got to get ready for class. my pills right now are Adderall XR 20mg. but i also noticed all i did that day was work on school work and after i got done talked to freinds and played some counter strike and watched tv. should i exercise before i goto bed to kinda exhast my self a little or does this just happen once in a while. all i know is on the side effect list it said i might lose sleep at times and that this is common.

adderall is to strong for me i take Ritalin and i can fall asleep even if i take it late at night..maybe you should lower your dose..b/c you need sleep for memory and rest...also if you exercise late it give you more energy and you have a hard time falling asleep. try taking half a pill if it's a tablet in the mean time before telling you Dr...
ive been falling alseep now 3days staight and now the adderall finnally leaves my system after like 5 hours when i take which the dr told me was normal for the type of med i got. but thanks all for caring enough to answer my question., wish i could make every answer the best but i can. Report It
