ADHD and anxiety

Hi guys,

i have had ADD without hyperactivity since I was 14

I have been on Vyvanse for the past few moths but can obnly tolerate 30 mg without anxiety. 30 mg doesnt cut it though. I need a med that is not going to cause anxiety. Anyone have any similar issues or suggestions on what med helped you and kept your anxiety down?
