You have to start somewhere, right?  My difficult child also took Clonidine for awhile in addition to ADHD medications and it does help with sleep. Do watch for sleepiness during the day though if he is taking them in the morning and afternoon.  IF Adderall is the right medication for him (it might not be, every kid responds differently and sometimes you have to try a few) the counseling will work better.  ADHD is a place to start, and see where it goes from there.  At least with ADHD medications, you will be able to tell right away if it's making a difference.  Keep us posted!
