Pregnenolone

I've been taking 10 mg of pregnenolone for adrenal problems. It definitely makes a difference. But I can't sleep AT ALL. And the insomnia lasts days even after I haven't taken a tablet. One website said that we shouldn't take more than 5mg a day and yet on this forum, some ladies are taking 200mg a day! Does anyone know whether I will level out, or does anyone else experience the 'wired' feeling?
