I'm finding that my anxiety is only improving a tiny bit on my adderall, and I'm wondering if a medicine specifically for anxiety would help. I cannot get to sleep because my brain is buzzing constantly, and every noise wakes me up. I've bitten my nails all but off, and I can't relax my nervous energy. Is anyone on here taking anxiety meds? If so, is it helping?

I don't wake up drowsy like with over-the-counter sleep aids; rather I wake feeling rested. Talk to your doctor. You might need to try a couple different medications to help, such as trazadone, but there are medications that work and help with getting a good night's sleep...one of the best things I got help with.
