She put me on 20mg of Vyvanse and 1mg of Klonopin but idk if this stuff is actually helping I have touretts syndrome so I have tics really bad and the Vyvanse really brings my tics out bad so I have some guanfacine 1mg er my Dr prescribed when she prescribed me the Adderall it's left over so I'm going to try it and see if it helps the tics from the Vyvanse also I don't really see what people get from this Vyvanse it just makes me all quiet and anti social I guess if it wasn't for the tics I could see it helping me focus more but I think I'm gonna have to go up more on the dosage as 20mg really has stopped kicking like it was when I first started... Also I'm able to eat like a horse on Vyvanse I can eat anything anytime of day and I can sleep good to so I find the really weird because almost everyone iv talked to says it takes there appetite away and sleep, but not me...as for the 1mg of Klonopin twice a day it's not really helping my anxiety I'm use to Xanax I can take 2mg of Xanax and mentally feel my anxiety go away plus Xanax makes me want to get out 3do stuff and be more active and social, Klonopin on the other hand I'll take 2mg of it and I'll kinda start to feel something like a hour later then I'll just get drowsy and want to lay down I don't physically feel it lowering my anxiety like with the Xanax either.....shewwww idk what to do really I thought about just asking my Dr to take me back to Adderall but instead of a 15mg extended release give me like a 5 or 10mg instant release this time my main problem with the Adderall before was it lasted to long but I don't recall my tics being as bad as they are with the Vyvanse but I just feel so overwhelmed I don't want to bother the Dr by going back and forth asking for different meds ya know sounding like a drug seeker she already told me she wouldn't prescribe Xanax but honestly it's the only one that I can even feel the Klonopin doesn't help I can't even feel it I'm not even taking it. But that's how it's going lol sorry for the long message.
