Trouble Sleeping with Adderall XR

I was just diagnosed with ADHD and am on a trial dose of Adderall XR 15mg. I am also taking 300mg of Effexor for Anxiety/Depression. That might change now that I've been diagnosed with ADHD. It appears that a lot of my Anxiety/Depression issues were actually ADHD issues. Anyway, I'm wondering if anyone has had difficulty sleeping while taking the Adderall. I've heard trouble sleeping is one of the main side effects. Any suggestions on how to avoid this side effect, or how to deal with it? Thank you in advance.

I am wondering if it the Effexor

that preventing you from sleeping because Adderall ususalaly wear off in 8 to 12 hours; but the meds for anxiety etc last longer. What is the generic name of Effexor IS IT BUDEPRION because if it is it can cause difficulty in sleeping.
