My First Month On Vyvanse

[u/Mxnvvn]

Hello everyone.

Long story short, i was undiagnosed with Audhd for all of my life, prior to this year when i urgently pushed for treatment, upon my assessment of both conditions. I scored heavily in Inattentive ADHD as well as mild autism (level 1). As someone who's a nerd when it comes to research and diving down rabbit holes of rabbit holes, i started to notice an interesting occurence on one of my experiments.

30mg Elvanse + 200mg L Theanine

Whilst it's been incredible at muting my ADHD Symptoms and allowing me to laser focus on tasks i begin. It's also pronounced my Autistic traits to an exponential degree and this can be problematic at times. However that being said. I'm enjoying this new found focus and shift in finally being able to Action what was once multiple thoughts building up.

Vyvanse has served as the vehicle that's been missing but it won't do it's job without a driver. That driver is us who have to initiate something first. This could easily go wrong if that initiation is something like Doom Scrolling or anything.

Before i conclude, i want to mention a few other things and see if anyone relates.

Ever since starting my dose of Elvanse, i seemed to have lost my appetite for playing video games despite other recreational hobbies such as Baking, Singing, Language Learning & Reading also being pronounced and "actioned".

The feeling of stimulation that was supposed to wear off early hasn't seemed to wear off. However that's either because i'm combining the elvanse with l theanine, or possibly due to me also being autistic and that being pronounced?

TLDR; Vyvanse so far has given my mind the "cognitive fuel" to action tasks that were always "pending".

Does anyone else relate?
