If you ever need to explain this effect- know that Adderall and Vyvanse are in the same family of drugs. Adderall is focus + motivation and Vyvanse is just the focus.

In both cases, you need to train yourself to focus on the correct thing, but Adderall pretty much agitates you into action, lol

Yeah, my SO thinks I’m going to die young with the consistent amphetamine use (heart going to explode). Is Vyvanse amphetamine based? I’m on 30 XRs. Also, try to do drug holidays every 3-6 months and get off of it for 2-3 weeks. But I have bad ADHD so it’s not an option to get off forever.
