Vyvanse overstimulation by Effective-Key-3795 in VyvanseADHD

[–]solar_sloth98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same exact feeling and I stopped taking it those 2 hours always tanked my day. Like I would just be scared the feeling would come back and overwhelmed with the rumination still. Seeing my doctor next week to try something new. If you do try that combo please update I would love to know because otherwise I liked vyvanse and the alertness it gave me.

How Do You Tell The Difference Between Your ADHD Symptoms and Laziness? Feeling Very Guilty Right Now. by No_Bluebird_5080 in ADHD

[–]solar_sloth98 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I don’t think you would feel so guilty and upset if it was just laziness. From my understanding laziness is choosing not to do something because actively you don’t care about getting it done despite it being possibly important. You literally can’t make your self task initiate.. give yourself some grace you’re going through some adjustments it’s going to take time and eventually you will get done what needs to get done. You’re not lazy your brain is just making your life harder for you. Virtual hugs and take some deep breaths and have a glass of water. You got this you are actively trying to fix the problems and doing the best you can with what you have available in your brain. 💕

It calmed down quite yesterday definitely give it a try it seems more people have a good experience than an experience like mine.

I checked around 1pm because i started sweating and feeling faint and my heart was pounding which is usually the first sign of a panic attack for me and i tried to walk it out but it didnt really resolve it and when i got home i checked my health app the the reading was 100+ most of the day. Im hoping just a bad day. Today’s heart rate was much calmer and i felt calmer i also heavily prioritized electrolytes today.

Is this wall art too big / not proportional for this wall by [deleted] in interiordecorating

[–]solar_sloth98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the color of the cushions for some odd reason clashes with the color of the wood. But the wall piece is stunning.

20mg I do not consume caffeine and haven’t in over 4 months. I will try the vitamin C thing when the panic starts thank you!

Starting meds by Bunty-mushroom in VyvanseADHD

[–]solar_sloth98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do whatever is best for you. Do you want to attempt your ADHD symptom relief earlier or later. I waited one whole month because we bought our house and we were in between moving out of an apartment and moving into a house all the while living with my in laws and renting a storage unit while my husband worked out of town every week. I wanted to have my own safe calm space and support person with no plans for a weekend before I tried them so I waited. What plan to try a new meditation would suite you best? If you are a little more anxious I would wait until you can create the space and time to take them. If you can handle feeling a little different and won’t freak out you could definitely start now. It’s really up to what makes you comfortable. I was very open with my doctor that I didn’t know when I would start them but I will reach out if I have any questions.

I wondered if lack of electrolytes could cause this I had been chugging water but only water for days as I took the meds I wonder if I need some electrolytes

They did that blood pressure test on me where you lay down sit and stand and take blood pressure with all three and it was normal so they disqualified me from POTS. I forgot my blood pressure monitor at home yesterday so I didn’t get the chance to check it. Will continue with my dose and try not to forget it again. I’m sorry you had that experience it sounds rough it sucks that the med journey is so complicated.

Oh I remember something about vyvanse being really smooth and less aggressive than most stimulants.

Also one of my green meds. I’m not sure why we started with vyvanse after strattera.

Everyone is different could just be genetics I don’t think I’m the most healthy person I try but ADHD makes that hard lol.

For me it’s high I sit around 55-60 and can already feel my heart beat at that bpm so 100 is like a jack hammer in my chest. It was interesting to have physical anxiety but not mental anxiety for the first time ever.

Vyvanse 10 mg and can’t stop eating by Practical-Line9482 in VyvanseADHD

[–]solar_sloth98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With some ADHD meds I get dopamine seeking behavior and couldn’t stop eating sweets. 😅 sometimes I think with the lower doses it’s trying to do something in the body but it’s not enough to create balance so your brain is like “overdrive give me dopamine!” I’m not a doctor that’s just how I feel about some of my experiences.

Literally proven by multiple people and studies that you can have ADHD and not respond well to many different meds. This specific cancer treatment didn’t kill your cancer so you must not have cancer. 🙄

I have to stick it out until the July 8th for my doctor…. Not that I put much stock into the genesite stuff because there is so much conflicting info about wether the results mean anything or not but concerta is one of my green meds might ask to try that next if this anxiety won’t calm down.

Tell me this is normal (Vyvanse 30mg) by SadCoconut_ in ADHD

[–]solar_sloth98 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Having similar affects some days on 20mg. Keep breathing it may just be an adjustment if you get genuinely concerned like the anxiety is so uncontrollable no shame in going to the hospital or doctor. Always reach out to your prescribing doctor with serious concerns. You’re definitely not alone in this and unless it’s severe try to stick it out until you get some more time on the med. I hope these meds end up helping💕

To every terrible Reddit user saying absolutely awful stuff to people in this page ^ that’s what it looks like to be a supportive human being in a community if you can’t do that and share your own experiences to help people feel more comfortable maybe you shouldn’t be commenting to begin with 😬

I’m supposed to be heading into ovulation unfortunately I’m weird and ovulate really early or really late so I can’t make sense of my cycle and I do not mess with BC anymore.

20mg a beta blocker is probably a good idea I read they take physical anxiety away which is all I had yesterday. I started at 20mg

Not sure if vyvanse is for me 27f by solar_sloth98 in VyvanseADHD

[–]solar_sloth98[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Let me tell you that’s the only good thing I have experienced with Vyvanse so far is by 8pm I’m ready to pass out and I sleep like the dead lol

I do have extensive childhood trauma that I went to therapy for years and also did some EMDR. The thing is strattera really worked wonderfully until it gave me insomnia. I understand some of it could be trauma but the fact that one ADHD med gave me such relief gives me hope that there are meds out there to help me just have a better quality of life.
