I took my first 30mg yesterday at 7:30am. To be honest I woke up at 6am and couldn’t get back to sleep because I was so excited to take it. After about an hour and a half I could feel it kicking in. I went for a walk and as usual, I had 100 things I was thinking about, but then all of a sudden I was a bit clearer headed and was just in the moment walking along. About 3 hours after taking it, I got…
Has helped me sleep. Gotten rid of afternoon crashes. I don’t feel wired. WOW anyone else here take Clonidine with their vyvanse? I take it at night but having it in my system seems to be reducing so much overstimulation submitted by /u/OkReception7852 [link] [comments]
My 30mg Vyvanse has been a life saver and works GREAT……. for 4-5 hours (after taking, so realistically more like 3-4) then I get such extreme tiredness that I feel I need to shut my eyes for about a hour and mentally ”sleep” (but the medication is still in my system so I can’t actually fall asleep). Even after this period passes, I then just feel as if all motivation went out the door and i’m my…
I was prescribed Vyvanse, starting at 30mg a month ago. I’m currently doing a course, and since starting Vyvanse I’ve absolutely smashed through it. The course is supposed to take around 12 months, but I’ve basically finished it in 2 months, so from that perspective the meds are definitely working 😂. But I’ve realised I’ve kind of made the course my entire world. I’ve been rushing to finish…
Diagnoses: ASD, ADHD, GAD, Social Anxiety Disorder, Unspecified Trauma or Stressor-Related Disorder Dose: Vyvanse 20mg, taken at 7:20 a.m. Writing this about 8-9 hours in. This is literally day one, so I know it's early and things may change. But the results so far are positive enough that I wanted to write them down while they're fresh. Onset Not sudden, which I strongly prefer. It came on…

New to vyvanse, think I’ve been on it for about a month now. One major thing I’ve noticed is that my sensitivity to noise is heightened like crazy, I assume it’s because it stimulates the nervous system and all. But the difference is extremely noticeable to me at least. Off meds I actually seek out background noise since it helps me focus more like giving my brain a distraction, that’s been my…
I just started Vyvanse and I feel like my experience with it so far doesn't match what I usually see from others, so I'm just curious. For the record, I have ADHD, Bipolar II, and Generalized Anxiety Disorder. So far I've tried 10mg and 20mg. At 10mg I felt nothing at all. At 20mg I felt like my anxiety just...melts away. I see everyone talking about how it gives them energy or it helps them…
