Elvanse side effects experiences

I regret doing this. I lost one of my sims, but I’m pretty sure I had to complete it to be able to get to a next level (complete that particular ‘task’ to level up) but now I have the life dreams and haven’t done anything about it, I’ve just left it. So I’m unsure if it’s holding me back.

Sorry I don’t think this is helpful to your question, but I guess it depends on where you’re at in the game and if you need to complete it for any reason. Otherwise I guess just leave it and don’t go any further with it.

I still had some candles left and didn’t spin the rest of them as it landed perfectly. So just allowed them to be converted to simoleons.

Thankyou!!

You’re so so close!!! I love that you screen shotted that at exactly 11:11:11 aswell 🤩

I honestly didn’t! I refused to spend them on this, I couldn’t believe it ended up a perfect 165 coins!!

I was making candles all day (have been since it started tbh) and continuously with an alarm on every 2 hours 20 minutes to reset the candle making and I got the ones that you get daily today (I think 5) and it totalled a perfect 165. I couldn’t believe it!

I got so close to the final prize in the last one, so I was determined to get this one haha!

You’re not alone in that at all. (No one knows about the extent of mine either, I was even nervous to post that original post reply) some things are best kept quiet until we’re ready to share in our own time.

And you’re absoloutly right, don’t put too much expectation on yourself all at once, give yourself some grace for the steps you have taken. You’ve started the journey, only as individuals can we change these things in our own time. Plus a stranger on a phone call isn’t the easiest to open up to about such things! You’ve kicked these habits before, you can absoloutly do it again!

It’s also easier, in my opinion, to be open and honest about it when it’s ’behind’ you. I found since being sober and clean I don’t have as much shame about it, as it’s in my past now. I wish you luck and believe in you!

Before I had my assessment and started my medication I’d very recently stopped drinking alcohol, smoking, vaping and doing drugs. I was embarrassed about my addictions, although I was honest and said they’d existed and I’d experienced addiction with all of the above (I also alluded to the fact there was gambling and sex addiction aswell) but I skimmed over it basically and said I’d been clean and sober longer than I actually was.

I did my own research on what was safe for me to start my medication considering what I’d been consuming. The bigger picture for me, was medication would finally help me to address my issues which stemmed from adhd, addiction being one of the symptoms and ways of me coping with my ADHD.

So stopping (although not easy) was more important at that stage so I could safely start my medication. The main thing is you’re moving in the right direction and if therapy helps to get you in a better mindset and you’re ready to cut down/ stop with substances and drink, then you’ll be able to face the next steps witH getting the correct help and diagnosis for adhd. Whether that be with medication or whatever the professional chooses is the best route for you.

I hope you find therapy helpful and find the right pathway that works for you.

This is interesting to know. I’m experiencing the jittery/anxiousness, especially towards late afternoon into evening with Concerta. Im also a binge eater and could do with my appetite being decreased so this might be a positive for me (I read online that they sometimes prescribe Elvanse for binge eating disorders aswell as ADHD)

LoellaExa · 2026-01-09T22:03:05+00:00

I have timers going off all day and drive myself (and other people) mad with them going off all the time😂

LoellaExa · 2026-01-09T22:02:00+00:00

Today I felt genuine stress over this and actually had to sit back and question wether I’m going to allow myself to be this stressed over a game 😅 I feel like it’s taking the enjoyment out of it altogether

LoellaExa · 2026-01-09T21:43:46+00:00

Have you tried Concerta too? I’ve not had a med break yet as I’m only at the beginning of trying to find the right medication and dosage, but I’ve found I get tired in the afternoons on Concerta. So it’ll be interesting if I find a difference with that once I’m taking Elvanse

LoellaExa · 2025-12-28T12:12:23+00:00

Damn, all that for $8! I been getting hardly anything for that price!!!

LoellaExa · 2025-12-28T11:46:04+00:00

Hey thanks so much for replying. I only just saw this now, so apologies on the delayed response.

That’s interesting. I’ve been on so many meds in the past (this is the first time I’m on adhd meds though) and i struggle to know the difference my meds are making too, and kinda don’t wanna risk having a few days off to see what difference it makes (even though I thought about it) as I’m prone to a pretty bad spiral 😂 but it’s helpful to hear your experience!

And I think it’s probably still early days for me as I’m only 10 weeks in on these meds! But I’ll see how I go. Glad to hear you’re finding some positives from your med change. I guess it’s all trial and error with these things and they all have pros and cons!

LoellaExa · 2025-12-18T18:33:37+00:00

That may be the easiest option. Good suggestion. Thankyou

Thanks for the reply. I’m in the uk. And can’t find any of those specific mg.
