What happens when it wears off...it's like a "drain" period of the dopamine, and the stimulation, and it causes emotional feelings like, just crying because of what ever your thinking about causes dispair.

I tried taking Vyvanase and liked it except for the fact that it never wore off. I couldn't sleep and after several days I just felt easily angered. I even took the lowest dose - 20mg. I think Vyvanse is supposed to last 12 hours (which for me is more like 18 hours!).The Focalin is pretty good, but I need to take at least 2 doses a day.
I didn't like how Adderall made me irritable and mean (Focalin doesn't do that).
I will give it another week or so and see how it works out.
I need an 8 hour Vyvanse!
