Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic

Adderrall is a stimulant and if you take it daily, it would effect on your sleep, Better to avoid it for few days. Cymbalta is good antidepressant, but it has good response on somatic symptoms rather than depression. Better to shift on antidepressant like trazodone oor mirtazapine to get sound sleep. You can take klonapin and ambien at night. Take parocet on sos basis for pain.

Thanks
