I’ve only been taking it for one day, so this is just a first impression.
So far, no side effects, but I’m one of the lucky ones whose bodies tolerate medication pretty well. The only Adderall side effect I ever had was dry mouth. I drink so much coffee that constipation never had a chance 🙂
The one thing I have noticed about Vyvanse is that it doesn’t have the waking power of Adderall. When I wake up tired and groggy, Adderall is a pretty quick boost of energy and wake-up power. Vyvanse seems to be missing this.
I was pretty tired yesterday, and it was my day to go 100 MPH with my 3 year-old daughter, so no word yet on its impact on my usual ADD-ADHD symptoms
I’ll check in again about how Vyvanse is working after I’ve been taking it for a few days.

I’ve been taking 30mg on vyvanse and it kills my sex drive I don’t feel the need to have sex with my gf at all anymore, it wakes me up and makes me feel more focused but it makes me feel like I’m not enough for my girl anymore. And also it’s been making me shit a lot more it’s kind of black now too. It’s been about two weeks and my doctor is so backed up I can’t get in for another month. What should I do?
That’s called a Vyvanse crash when your mood is low. Use it when you need to get work done only. At night your drive will improve since the crash is lessened. To have a smoother crash, I suggest eating protein and fiber during the effect period and drinking loads of water. I don’t feel like doing that but it’s better than feeling like bashing my head on the wall!
i am taking 60 mg. of vyvanse felt good at school,felt like working,yesterday.today felt nothing could not tell even took it.is this normal or is this how its going to be everyday?
OMG! I was taking Adderrall to help me focus and concentrate at work. I never felt it actually get into my system as far as sudden racing heart etc, I never felt like I was on anything…my day was just better and so was my brain. Sources say they have stopped production of adderall until next summer 2012…..so the dr gave me 50 mg of vyvanse….I took it yesterday for the first time and I was a mess..lol…I was soooooooooooooooo tired…kept yawning all day, couldn’t focus and could hardly drive home. I felt like I had taken benedryl or something..I was in bed by 7:30 and SLEPT. Today…nothing happened again…NOTHING…yawning same thing…took another..so 100 mg just for a test…..NOTHING…I have felt like dropping my head on my desk all day…..it’s awful….I want my adderall back..sob sob…
