Is adderal extended release good for patients with bi polar disorder

Would adderal Extended release be a better  option for me? I have bipolar disorder, my psychologist describes it as bi-polar hypomania. I have always been an excessive sleeper no matter how much sleep I get I’m extremely tired. I take klamicital 200 mg daily and trazdone 100 mg at night along with remeron. I started the adderal 4 days ago, the first day I felt extremely jittery but today it’s better. But after the adderal “wears” off I am even more tired. Would extended release adderal be a better option? I take 1 mg klopin 3 times daily as well. I feel as though when I take it, it gives me energy. My doctor thinks the adderal will relieve my dependence on the Klopin.
