It is, anxiety is the root of the insomnia bc. I have a lot of shit on my mind constantly. Which causes me to not be able to sleep and when I do sleep I have fucking horrific nightmares.

Feel your pain, DC. I have a problem with nervous energy/anxiety. Like my mind never shuts off. So even when my body is wiped, I'll still have trouble going to sleep because I'm constantly running through my mind.

You need to get some rest. Do something to relax bud.

Same kind of thing here, but in a more creative way (and without the nightmares) - thoughts and ideas just won't quit and I end up awake all night.
I know you mentioned you've tried melatonin, but are you trying a high enough dose? I've been taking 10mg capsules on & off for the last month and they're great. Eyelids just get heavy and within 1hr I'm zzzzzzzzzzz
I've tried a heap of things - only melatonin and some mysterious sleeping tablets I bought in Colombia have worked so far.

Have you considered not taking your adderall and ACTUALLY exercising?
An hour walk isn't going to stress your central nervous system.

If you would have read any of the more recent posts you would see that I stated I didnt take my adderall during the last day of my 3 day sleepless episode. It didnt do anything, its anxiety and stress, causing me to think too much paired with the constant urge to writhe my feet and ankles when im laying down.
Its not the addys bro, and an hour walk is more exercise than a lot of people get. Its better than sitting on my ass.

Long term adderall use has its affects, don't think for a second it doesn't. And who cares about the majority, the majority of people are lazy fucks to begin with so that doesn't say much.
You should try lifting and running and see if it helps. But good luck man, insomnia is a bitch.

My RLS doesn't act up much anymore, unless I'm really stressed.
My grandma says L-dopa works for her. Might help your dopamine receptors too.

I used to lift everyday a few years ago, The free time I do have I like to relax on. but I do wanna get into some decently aerobic intense exercise, get up to running a few miles a day but thats a goal with a lot of distance between then and now.

Yeah, I understand man. I use to have insomnia too for about 2 years, so I know exactly where you are coming from. Its only adds to all the stress that you are going through.
You'll get through it man, its all just temporary bullshit.

Yeah I'm an insomniac basically. My brain never fucking shuts down. Getting something for it is useless cause the only thing that would work would be a benzo and I need my brain.

I'm prescribed Amitriptyline, i went 20 days with no weed recently and slept well every night. Even started sleeping earlier because i was bored, i can see why most people don't stay up all night.

^ I absolutely despise Amitriptyline. It is the go to sleep aide that is beyond shit! My friend had an abundance of it and when I was young I took 2 100mg and was a walking zombie for 2 days! Mood was beyond dull, probably what Thorazine feels like!
