I've taken L-Theanine in the morning with coffee, but I found that it seems to limit the effects of my stimulant medication for ADHD, which I suppose makes sense. I will likely try taking it in the afternoon if I drink another cup of coffee.

Interesting. In what way? I just started a generic version of concerta and so far haven't found L-Theanine to have any negative effect, though I mostly get it from green tea and only take it in supplement form.
I vaguely remember theanine helped me sleep.

I've had bad sleep forever, but since I've started concerta, my sleep is worse than ever.

Guess I should give theanine another shot.
