I've had issues getting to sleep and staying asleep forever, but today I took my first two doses of Adderall (20 MG each). Uh, yeah. So, the only noticeable difference at the time was a little bit of a bump in my energy level. Now though, it's 1 am and I'm not particularly tired! :o

Not too worried yet since it's the first day. Most nights if I'm up this late (I try to be asleep by 10), I'm dragging *** tired but can't fall asleep. Now I just feel, uh, okay. A little tired, but not like I'm struggling to sleep and can't, just, like it's not quite time yet.

Interesting. Not sure what to make of it so we'll see how it goes! What's been your experience with meds and sleeping patterns?

I have slept better and more refreshed since being on vyvanse. The first few days I had a bit of trouble with sleep but since then, I fall asleep about 5 min. after getting into bed.

Did you do anything different after the first few days? Or just push through?

Wow, okay.

So weird night of "sleep."

I think I slept some, although I don't remember it in the normal sense. I was up on the computer for a lot of the time, kind of tired, but not sleepy. Hard to explain.

The two pills yesterday snuck up on me. I was halfway thinking of seeing if I could switch meds, 'cause I barely noticed them. Today though, actual beginnings of what some call focus! Getting a little work done, little tired but not like go home and take a nap tired like normal.

I just need to get a bit more sleep at night though!

So, someone's got to have some sleep/adderall input! Input, need INPUT! :D

Nothing different, just working more on organizing since I was more focused.
