Okay...I know this is a silly question but...are you not supposed to drink Green Tea and be on adderall at the same time?

Here's what happened last night...by the way, i have never had problems sleeping on this med...i took a 15 xr about 2pm. I usually take a 10xr and fall right asleep around 11. Not hungry, but very thirsty at 9pm...went to starbucks and decided to try their new green tea latte. it has green tea mixture, milk, and vanilla syrup. I finished drinking it about 11, was not tired at all! I lay in bed for two hours before getting up and downloading some music and watching tv. finally around 5:30 am, i fall asleep. Now, I work full time at an investment firm, and im working on 2 hours of sleep. this can't happen again. was it the 15xr instead of 10...does it make that big of a difference? or was it drinking the green tea?? also, i swear i heard noises all night and was freaked out more than usual that someone was going to break into my house...

suggestions please...:eyebrow:

when i'm on adderall, i crave green tea. my drink of choice is arizona green tea w/ginseng and honey. i can't say that it's ever given me any problems, though. do you usually drink caffeinated drinks at night?

yeah, if the green tea had caffeine in it, that could cause some of these problems
