sleeping/dreaming | ADHD Information

i started taking 5 mg a day adderall (more liek 7.5 or 10 throughotu teh day) im 17 almost im 6 4 and i weigh about 175 pounds, so my doctor tells me that 5 mg should barely do anything to me. but thats not true, i do great on the 5 or 10 mg and it really helps with tests and all that stuff, ive only been taking it for 2 weeks though so who knows...ive been getting less sleep though somtimes, waking up in the middle of the night, and weird dreams. Could this just be random because 5 mg isnt that much or is this a problem that could go further if i dont stop the adderall?im also tired when i wake up.I assume you are taking Adderall XR. What time are you taking it? If you are taking it later, it could be affecting your sleep. My step-daughter is on 10 mg and rarely has sleep problems, however your experiance is common with stimulants. You are still in the adjustment period, so you may get better. Next time you see your doctor, bring this up.I am a 165 lb male who takes 10-15 mg of adderall a day.  I have to say - I do not think weight and size have anything to do with it, but this is a scientific question and a more experienced person can answer it.

I can totally "feel" when I take 5 mg.
