> dexedrine at small doses maybe can help sleep, but standard or high ones, when it wears off your irritable, and sometimes hard to go sleep. Say take 30mg of dex, not sure but that definitely would keep someone conscious and awake. But doses like 5mg-10mg could maybe let someone sleep. Dexedrine is used for narcolepsy, where you fall asleep anywhere anytime. Stimulant to keep you awake. Ritalin is different, much less potency and does not release neurotransmitters, but reptakes them.

You mean "inhibits their reuptake".

Some people, especially those with ADHD, get a calming effect from amphetamines. I've experienced this once, with phenylethylamine (PEA). I could have fallen asleep had I wanted to, but I watched the TV news, and I was amazingly good at remembering what I had seen and heard, even the weather forecast!
