Coming down off a stimulant can cause one irritability. Feeling hyper/racy on a stimulant is usually a side effect of the amphetamine.
This 'crash' you experience when the stimulant wears off can be treated by Clonidine or Intuniv (Guanfacine).
The other question begged by you becoming hyper on amphetamines, rather than calmed is, 'Do you really have ADHD?' Aren't you bipolar as well?
