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?

    Iirc Strattera is about 25 pct points behind stimulants in terms of how many people it works for. I wasnt among them, I couldnt feel any change from it so i switched to methylphenedate

      All it does to me is make me sleepy, but if I take it at night I don’t sleep. I don’t think it’s working…
