Was wondering what some of you are doing or taking to get some sleep. I'm currently taking Ritalin and am having problems getting some sleep.

I heard about taking Melatonin but could not find any information whether or not it is okay to take when you're taking Ritalin.

Check with your doctor.

Same thing I tell everyone who asks, drink warm milk. Heat it up in the microwave or whatever, and if you want to you can add some honey (tastes good ). There's a chemical that's released when milk is heated, and it causes your mind to calm down so you can relax and your mind won't wander as much.

It works for me, and a couple others have posted that it works.

A lot of people who have ADD/ADHD that take Ritalin have problems sleeping. I should know, I used to take it ^_^ I suggest you talk to your doctor about it and if you need to switch meds, they'll let you know. Until then drink warm milk, it does work.
