Which one of these works better for you and your ADHD? Vyvanse or Adderall extended release? My Dr. started me out on 15mg of the Adderall ER, but the effects were so intense that I could only make it two days of taking them. I was so jittery, anxious, sick to my stomach, I could not eat or sleep for 2 days.

So she changed me to 10mg Vyvanse, which wasn't as bad, and I kept taking it daily until I was moved up to 30mg. I can eat fine and sleep while on it. And now my next appointment is tomorrow, and I think I'm gonna ask for 40mg and maybe a booster. But the only issue is I recently tried some of those 15mg Adderall ER I still had for 2 days. Instead of taking my Vyvanse, I took the Adderall, and it really wasn't bad, nothing like the first time I tried it. Instead, it just helped my ADHD like the Vyvanse does, but I think I felt more energy. I could also eat and sleep fine on it. The only thing was that on the second day, 6 hours after I took it, I got so, so drowsy that I had to go take a nap. Like, I could not hold my eyes open at all. I thought this stuff was supposed to last longer than that?

But yeah, anyways, what do you all think? Which do you prefer, Vyvanse or Adderall ER? Do you still get that initial "rush" or good feeling at the start of both, or is the Adderall stronger at that, that you feel? I'd really like to know what you all think because I see my Dr. tomorrow, and the option to change back is on the table.

I'd really like to hear from only those who have tried both. Thanks a lot.

TL;DR: I’ve tried both Vyvanse and Adderall ER, and I’m trying to decide which one works better for my ADHD before my appointment tomorrow—so I’d like to hear from people who have tried both.

it's all weird, all of it? it's weird?

today i didn't take my vyvanse, just the xanax. yesterday i took the vyvanse and adderall. a day before that, but i took 4mg of the xanax with the vyvanse and adderall and felt jack shit. it's legit US pharmacy xanax, nothing pressed. but if i take it with those addys and vyvanse, i feel nothing. i even woke up the next day and took 6mg and drank a beer. i still don't feel the xanax. it's been an hour! like, folks, it's not like i've forgotten what i've taken. like, it has not had any mental effect on me whatsoever. it's like i never even took one.

i didn't take my vyvanse today or adderall and only took 6mg of xanax and drank a beer. still don't feel shit, not even anxiety relief.

i hear 1mg of xanax will knock u out. minus adding a beer, these are legit from a US CVS pharmacy, 1mg footballs. so are the vyvanse 30mg and adderall 30mg XR. any idea here? they are GG258, i think, on the tab. i hear they are some of the best, strongest brands u can get, but i'm confused. i had no benzo tolerance up until a month ago, when i would take like 2 to 3mg of Klonopin twice a week. before that, i took nothing.

Thanks for any pointers or first hand experience or help in general

I am on felony probation in Virginia and I just started seeing a new psychiatrist via telehealth. She is prescribing me mental health medications, including Vyvanse and Klonopin. I know both are controlled substances.Will I be okay taking these while on probation, and what exactly should I do? It really has me worried since I know my next drug screen will test dirty for amphetamines (from the Vyvanse) and benzodiazepines (from the Klonopin).Any advice would really help ease my mind.

i guess i'm really just wondering if legally i'm ok and they can't like violate me and throw me in jail?

Thanks.

Hi, my Dr. just started me on 10mg of Vyvanse, but I couldn't even feel it, so I tried taking 20mg yesterday morning, and I really felt that it made me more focused, slowed my mind down from racing thoughts, and made me more motivated. But I'm going back to 10mg today and talking to my Dr. about moving me up to 20mg on Thursday. What do you all think about Vyvanse?

My Dr. first started me on 15mg of Adderall XR, and I could not handle that. It came on too strong, lasted too long, made me clench my jaw all day, and made me jittery and nervous. Also, my Dr. has me on 0.5mg of Klonopin twice a day, but it's not really doing anything either. Back about 3 years ago, when I lived in another state, my psych Dr. had me on 2mg of Klonopin three times a day, and that did help.

But besides my ADHD, my real problem is anxiety and agoraphobia. I told my Dr. that sometimes I would take one of my mother's 2mg Xanax if I ever had to do anything in public or had an anxious situation. I told her I took one on our first appointment and that I was so nervous I almost cancelled our appointment 10 times leading up to it.

I also just sent my Dr. an email asking her if I could increase the Vyvanse to 20mg and the Klonopin to 1mg, but I have not heard back yet. I see her again Thursday, so maybe I shouldn't have sent her an email. I hate that I might be coming off weird, like I'm wanting more drugs, but that ain't it. I honestly can't even feel I've taken the dose.

But what do you all think about this, and what do you think about Vyvanse? BTW, this is the first time I've used Lemmy, first post ever on Lemmy, too, so please be easy on me lol. Thanks!
