Trialing new medication.
Hello! My 1 month trial on dexamphetamine just ended (2x5mg 3x times daily - can do 4x if absolutely necessary but I never did). Anyway, it did help with food noise/ chaotic head noise in general, I was able to focus but I didn’t feel like I was getting the full 3 hours of focus, and it also felt like it was working better in the morning when I took my first dose compared to my 2nd or 3rd dose. The medication for me felt inconsistent, however I was taking regular breaks and taking them at different times. Mood felt regulated, still struggled to start tasks but once I have started I could finish. I saw my psychiatrist yesterday and he suggested I trial Vyvance for 2 months, he has warned me that the medication won’t do anything for the first 2 weeks as this is just a period for me to take it consistently for 2 weeks straight (same time each morning, getting my body use to it). He sent me a script which I haven’t picked up yet but I will start it on Thursday morning. He told me for the 2 week period I need to empty the capsule into a bottle, fill with water and I need to drink half each morning and repeat this for 2 weeks and then after that period I can take the entire capsule every morning like normal. I have been prescribed 50mg, please give me tip and tricks on this medication!
