Can someone please explain to me, scientifically -preferably with evidence- why taking adderall even 10 hours before bed affects my sleep when the half life is 4-6 hours?

Is it because only half of the drug is gone by 4-6 hours? Or am I confused and the effects are completely gone by 4-6 hours?

I take adderall everyday around 10pm once. This is an instant release. I find that it’s enough for most of my work day, and I take around 20mg. I might toy with two 10 mg around 10am and 2pm but my concern is that if I take adderall at any point 8-10 hours before my bed time it affects my sleep. Either I can’t sleep or I wake up In the middle of the night.

What’s only good about this is that I can feel the effects after the 4-6 hour effect time that’s commonly touted.

What gives?
