Not sure if it's the Concerta causing this issue. I have an awful time snapping out of my sleep. I feel incredibly sluggish in the morning, no energy and wanting to go back to sleep regardless of how many hours I get.

Any others experiencing this? Any ideas on why?

Sorry to say I think this is typical.

Yep, pretty much happens to most of us no matter what stimulant we use. A recommended trick is to set your alarm a little earlier than normal, when it goes off take your Concerta then within 30-45 minutes you should wake up much easier.

Some doctors will prescribe a short-acting stimulant for this purpose so you don't have to worry about your long acting stimulant wearing out too soon in the day.
