Will Consuming Marijuana Late Night Cause Any Serious Effect?

Will consuming marijuana late at night (around 11pm..12am....etc.) after have being on Vyvanse(50mg) all day (since about 9:30 am) have any frightening effects on me? I hate not being able to fall asleep and I especially dread the tossing and turning during the middle of the night. (I prefer Cannabis Indica at night rather than Cannabis Sativa as Indica strains are ideal for pain and are best known for getting you tired and sleepy, as opposed to the energetic, open minded, and free feeling Cannabis Sativa strains). It seems like the perfect solution but I figured I should first share my thoughts with a Doc who knows it all.

Cannot predict in your case and psychological effects are quite common. The main effects of marijuana are likely to be increased by being in the context of coming down off of vyvanse but they are the effects people take marijuana FOR so, generally this is regarded as 'good'. The sativa and indica distinction is not firm, it is more made up stories. They overlap considerably and there is variation within both, and even more variation in those taking them. In that context, there are frequent reports of anxiety attacks from both/either vyvanse and/or marijuana that typically last days to a few weeks. These are pretty common and by definition, frightening.

It fundamentally don't make no sense though because people take Vyvanse to be smarter and marijuana makes one dumber.
