Has anyone tried Zenzedi or Sunosi?
I am struggling trying to find relief from excess sleepiness, focus, motivation, etc. not diagnosed as narcolepsy - yet. I've tried Vyvanse, Ritalin, Focalin, Adderall , Provigil, anti depressants, and combos. None have provided substantial benefits. Anyone? About to start Effexor.

Digestion (bowel) improvement and Vyvanse
I have had digestive (bowel) problems all my life. I won't get specific, but I'm sure you can figure out what I mean. Since I've started Vyvanse about a month or so ago, I have noticed I am having a bowel movement every day and it's solid, if you know what I mean. I feel complete as well. This has

Anxiety from withdrawal or weight?
Hi all I’ve been taking adderal for the past 3 months. My doc switched me to Vyvanse when I kept getting anxiety once the adderal wore off. I don’t like Vyvanse as much (I’m not as productive) and I’m still getting anxiety. I have also lost 35lbs from exercise and dieting (I am still hungry taking these

Recently diagnosed with ADHD at 35
Hi Everyone. I was recently diagnosed with ADHD at 35. I truly believe now this has been my problem all along. I didn't/couldn't finish college or keep a job. I threw away so many job opportunities. Basically my life has not turned out the way I thought it would. I think the problem started when

Recommendations for the Phoenix area.
Hey everyone, I was recently diagnosed with ADHD back in November at 28 years old and my doc put me on Vyvanse and after a few months I am now at 70mg. The problem is that my dose used to work great and lasted all day and now I can barely get a dose to last half the day. From what I've read online this

Vyvanse only lasts 6hrs
Hi everyone, I'm on 70 mg of vyvanse and if I take it really early in the morning, by lunch time I am super tired. Since I'm already on the highest dose, what can I do? Also, been on it for about a month. Thanks!

Medication testimonial!
After barely a month on Vyvanse, my son earned an A on his 6th grade geometry exam. This is a first following a history of D’s and F’s. This is working!

Adult ADHD - Vyvanse/Adderall do NOTHING - Not sure where to go from here...
Diagnosed with ADHD (as well as depression and binge eating disorder) in Oct 2018. Dealt with it my whole life, but never medicated because it wasn't disruptive until recently. Oct 2018 I was Rx'd Vyvanse 30mg (as well as Wellbutrin 150mg, currently on 300mg). Vyvanse increased to 40mg in November. In

It works great for the first 6 hours but

Adderall X R and fatigue. HELP!
I’ve been taking Aderall X-R in morning and afternoon and feel extremely fatigued between doses and at end of day. It’s awesome when it’s time to go to bed, but difficult to deal with between doses. My Dr increased dosage but it’s not helping. I’ve taken Aderall (not X R) for years and didn’t experience
