r/ADHDdrugs

I’ve recently come to India for a vacation and realized that I’ll be staying longer than the amount of Vyvanse I was prescribed.
I’ve now finished my prescription, and I’m trying to figure out what my options are. I’ve heard that Vyvanse may be available in India, but I’m not sure how accurate that is or whether there are any psychiatrist is prescribing it .
Has anyone in India, particularly someone who was previously prescribed Vyvanse abroad, been able to see a psychiatrist and get a prescription ?
Any advice or experiences would be appreciated.

I've been skipping getting diagnosed because of the thought that everyone has ADHD these days so it'll be fine. I'm at a point where it's severely effecting me these days jumping from job to job because it all gets boring after I get the hang of it and all. I'm a recovering addict coming off shooting up heroin, meth and taking any pill that comes my way. Almost 3 years now and I just take a pinch of 2 substances which have been very good. I'm almost 30 now and I'm worried and can't do all this any longer. I was thinking of getting adhd medication and the thing that worries me is what comes after the honeymoon period. Exercising and meditation helps alot but I still can't push myself to work hard to pay bills. I'm lost. Anyt thoughts

I am 40 years old female recently got my diagnosis I have been waiting soooo long. I got 30 mg of Livizux (same active ingredient as as Vyvanse) and I was really excited to try it.

This morning I had coffee - maybe I should not - and then I had my med and a little breakfast. Not long after I had a call with a friend and I could not find my words, was really strange.

Then I sat down studying as I have an assesment coming up so I NEED TO FOCUSSS! I feeel that i can hardly stay on the task and I understand the text less than without meds.

It also might be important that I only had 5-6 hrs of sleep last night as in the last week i did a meditation retreat where i woke up at 4am, and i am still adjusting back to my normal routine.

Anyone had similar experience? I would love this to work for me and I am very sad that it had the opposite effect.

TL;DR: Day one on Livizux 30 mg, makes my brain work less, but I had coffee and lack of sleep. Anyone had similar experience that changed within the first couple of weeks?

Ok so I’m not diagnosed with adhd, but I’ve always had bad social and general anxiety. I tried some of my friend’s instant release Ritalin one day, idk why honestly, but it was like a fog I had my whole life was lifted, almost all my social anxiety was gone, i felt like I was finally in control of my own thoughts, like this is how I was meant to be. This is making me think that maybe my anxiety is actually a side effect of adhd. Any advice would be appreciated.
