Positive experiences
“It's been a game changer for my focus and energy levels, really brought me back to life.”

Negative and mixed experiences
“I got diagnosed with ADHD and tried Ritalin and Elvanse and they do help somewhat when I need to learn for an exam but I hate the feeling of being on them.”
“I used vyvanse daily for years. I have not felt pleasure, motivation, or desire in the same way since.”
“Concerta, Vyvanse (they gave me stimulation and a mood booster but it felt really artificial, left me with more depression when I was not taking it)”
“now, even after taking 7-10 days off it seems that 60mg still is just OK and i still cant reduce the dose successfully and feel slow/down unless i bump up to even more than 60mg.”
“within a few months of her starting on Vyvanse, it completely changed who my wife was.”
“I tried Vyvanse and Modafinilo and both were a mess. I was so stimulated I couldn’t focus.”
