I recently had to stop taking my vyvanse due to some bad side effects and holy shit I forgot how bad this was. I can’t do anything. I have so much shit I need to do but I sit down to do it and it genuinely fills me with dread. I am just staring at my computer. Even getting to the webpage I needed took hours of convincing. This is horrible, even caffeine isn’t helping. What do y’all do? How do you manage?

Maybe take less? Sometimes less is more. It was for me.

Are intending on just splitting open a capsule? Because a consistent dose will be hard to attain that way

So far so good. I can piss just fine on 40mg

Good to hear it. That’s closer to the dosage I’ve settled on.

I am splitting the capsule and I know people with pretty precise scales I can borrow but honestly getting a consistant dose is less of a priority than getting my work done. I’ll take what I can get
