Vyvanse ended up making my heart beat too crazy, and it really caused me anxiety. I ended up changing. Be careful.
I had to take the highest dose and then had to chug a 2x espresso and a white monster to clear the fog, back about 15 years ago, but I was working nights and my wife had just given birth to our second, so... yeah, a bit more going on there
Thanks, ive only had it a handful of times. Normally whenever we all get together for something cool which is never anymore. He also splits mine in half because im not used to it. Felt fine to me, but i know what feeling your talking about so I am glad thats not the case for me.
I'm glad it's working for you!
I guess, like all medecine, each person reacts differently.
