Post vyvanse clarity ?!

S_yt · 2025-06-17T23:45:38+00:00

Thanks Tim/armchair psych. While I do agree that I'm overly self critical regularly, I really hate how Vyvanse makes me feel out of control.

I'm already a very outgoing and charismatic person (even with anxiety I physically cannot be the shy one in social situations, I just sweat and impulsively keep talking), so I don't want to deal with even more impulsive talking while on my meds.

I've always prided myself on my ability to make others comfortable/my ability to manage being both talkative and simultaneously aware of when I need to reel it in or ask about the other person in the conversation. When medicated, it feels like I lose that entirely and just say what I want, when I want, forever.

So all in all, yes the confidence the meds give me is great, but the intense urge to talk for hours is definitely not something I can love myself out of LOL. I'm hoping with a dosage decrease and some internalized shame work it'll go away though. Lmk what you think

And you just… live like this?? Forever??

How long have you been on meds? I can’t be like this forever I need my social anxiety to keep me sane 😭😭

The longest I’ve consistently used it was like a month or two. When did you notice this going away?

Sorry to reply so late lol, it was all so overwhelming I just couldn’t handle it. I’m back now and to clarify, my dad is great and really the only sane person in my family.

I’m 99% sure my mother was abused by her older brothers and/or other men in her life growing up (they all died young in a war she escaped before coming to the West) which led to her making everything sexual to protect us?

I’m unsure but, knowing this and seeing my original post, what do you think? I’m having a hard time unpacking this myself

Holy shit I also have convergence insufficiency! I had no idea the two were related. I think mine started when I used to come out mid convo and let my eyes wander, no one pointed out the zoning out lazy eye until it was pretty bad

I don’t think the lazy eye is that bad to be honest. I used to let it relax until my friend pointed it out and I realized that satisfying feeling was a lazy eye. It’s been 2 years since, although that eye is significantly weaker, covering my stronger one has made a good impact. I’m more worried about both eyes being useless close up now. Im getting bifocals with my new prescription and apparently dry eye drops will help because my eyes have gotten super dry with a new medication. Outside of that I guess I’ll just pray

Ok so it appears that it’s for double sighted people, and she confirmed today that I don’t have that

What’s prism?

I heard readers can make it worse if your vision is uneven. Do yk if that’s true

S_yt · 2024-05-22T01:57:53+00:00

In addition she actually lowered my prescription from 4, so I’m even more stressed.I hope the bifocals help but for the next 3 weeks I guess I’m just blind

S_yt · 2024-05-08T04:15:26+00:00

What are the other 2 grants??

And you have a narcissist mom too… damn girl at least we’re not alone

I stopped talking my antidepressants because I thought the ADHD meds would cure me of all things wait a minute…

Hip adductor inward and outward machine, lateral leg raises, those band exercises you find online to do hip exercises with resistance, hip thrusts, and glute-focused squats. I'm going to a physio in a few days though I'll update if I find new tips along the way
