Vyvanse is where it’s at! But the trick that my nurse taught me with it is to open the capsule and take half in the morning and the other half w lunch - that allows it to be truly a 12 hour drug and minimizes the crash. Couldn’t recommend it more - good luck! :)

Also on Vyvanse - I can request electronically every month (via online portal) and they send to my pharmacy - (she said they used to do paper but ppl kept losing them 😂). I do have to go in quarterly for a med check.

I don’t currently take it but used to. It worked well for me. I didn’t like the drop off feeling I got from stimulants or the increased anxiety so strattera was a good option. It took some time to get the dosage right and I still took Ritalin as needed (mostly if I felt “off” and needed the extra help concentrating that day)

I did but it didn’t work for me

Hey so like - newfound reason for my procrastination since I got on Ritalin - a tendency towards "putting things off so I can enjoy the hyperfocus later". When I just started taking the meds I was super effective for a few weeks but now my brain seems to be figuring out ways around the drugs 🤦🏻‍♀️ any ideas on how to not fall back into procrastination behaviours?
