We also have a healthy almost 11 year-old daughter. We are on a combination of medicines with my son, and on

Recent Behaviour Changes
My son has been struggling with explosive behaviours at school for about 4 months now and we don’t know what to do. School has now pressured us to try medication. My son just started Vyvanse last week. Not sure what to do about the explosive behaviours at school. Will the medication help with this?

Vyvanse
I'm new here and just wanted to ask for some guidance. Anyone has experience with their child taking Vyvanse for ADHD and ODD. Any strange side effects I should be worried about? This is our 3rd medication trial as Ritalin and Adderall worked for a while but then stop working.

Vyvanse + Talking too much
Any of you guys have this issue? I've had to apologize to coworkers recently. What's strange is that before Vyvanse, I wasn't necessarily the most introverted person, but I definitely had my social anxiety issues where I was never quite sure how to cut off conversations so I often cut them off prematurely

Lab Results: Amphetamines Skewing Results?
I will be following up with the Endocrinologist tomorrow, it will be our second meeting. In our first meeting he was unsure if I have a thyroid problems but suspected adult growth hormone deficiency. I shared an article on how GH deficiency can mask subclinical/mild Central hypothyroidism and was hoping

Brain Fog with Vyvanse

Issues with eating
I'm a 21 year old male. I have been eating once at lunch time after fasting for 2 days and taking diet pills for a few weeks now. I've lost about 30lbs. My friends have expressed some concern that my eating habits are unhealthy. Honestly I've never felt better, except for the occasional stomach pain.

Guilt for asking for ADD medication
Hi, I'm Anna and I'm new here, So later today, I have an appointment with my college psychiatrist to see about getting medication for my ADD. She's prescribed me Lexapro for my depression, but I don't know her that well. I need some advice on how to bring up that I want to get on ADD meds. I'm so afraid

Frustrated, anxious and a I've become a pushover!!
My son who just turned 14, has inattention ADHD, officially diagnosed a year ago. Started 8th grade this year at a rigorous charter school. Was homeschooled before that for 2 years, it was successful. From K-5, went to small private school and excelled. This 8th grade year has been the most challenging

Vyvanse making me more distracted? Hyperfocus?

Update on Vyvanse and question about Lunesta.
I am up to 80 mgs of Vyvanse from 40mgs and seem to be better. I think I need a little more to get me over the hump of almost there. What is the highest you have been on? I am on Lunesta for RLS but since I have been on Vyvanse it seems to not work as well. I was taking clonazepam but it kept me tired

Anxious/emotional on Vyvanse
Hi, everyone. I've never used an online support group like this, but I'm getting desperate. My 7yo has been on Vyvanse for about 8 months. At first, it was like night and day, as far as how much it helped him. He loved it, felt better in his head and his heart, started excelling academically and socially

Dating with depression is SCARY
Ugh help!!

Why isn't Vyvanse working?
I have been on Vyvanse 40mgs for about a week and I do not feel any different. I was on Aderall 30mgs, round and pink (made me feel "normal") and two 30 mgs of orange oval (Didn't do anything and has a nasty sweet taste). The two Adderall was by Teva. Where can I get the pink 30 mg Adderall? Also, shouldn't

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
