So I’m in titration and I’m currently on Vyvanse 50mg. I’ve already tried methylphenidate up to around 60mg I think, but they just made me jittery. The Vyvanse doesn’t seem to be a whole lot better. I guess I feel ever so slightly better but it’s somewhat of an out-of-body experience and I feel the crash before the end of the work day. What I really wanted help with was my memory and context switching, and to be able to speak more clearly. I think that might have fixed all the other disorganisation issues, etc.
I’m considering asking to try the non-stimulant ones but I can’t really find anecdotal evidence of their effectiveness. Anyone tried them?
I am on strattera now, it works great for my adhd. I much prefer the strattera to all the amphetamines I’ve tried over the course of 36 years I’ve been jumping from stimulant to stimulant. Gotta stay on top of taking it though, if I go more than like 26 hours between taking one I start to feel withdrawal symptoms and they suck (heavy brain zap).
TW: sexual side effect

It makes it so I don’t always orgasm when I nut tho… which is a weird experience, like 3 out of 10 times I’ll just have an anhedonic finish…
