Ok, so despite this thread, I am currently trying 30mg of Vyvanse on the advice of a couple friends. Doctor doesn't have experience with it yet, but was willing to let me try it.
Ritalin had been good for focus, but over not too long of a period of being on it (a few months), it left me wanting to isolate even more than I normally would (already an issue, i.e.).
I was told by the friends that it was more consistent than other forms of slow-release stims and had less of a crash. The first day had me horribly irritable in the evening for about 30-45 min. I think it was a crash - however did not experience that on day 2.
This is day 3. I feel calm, but not particularly better-focused - kind of spacey if anything. I have the inattentive type ADD, so hyperactivity has never been an issue - actually, the lack of motivation/lethargy is the problem.
Obviously everyone's different, so I can't expect a universal answer. I'm just trying to get a sense of the possibilities - like has anyone started out with an experience that ended up getting better as time went on (maybe though a dose change or even just adjustment time)?
