"i am a 17 year old female who was diagnosed with add about 9 months ago. i had mainly b and c grades, i was scatter-brained, easily distracted, and extremely messy. since i started vyvanse at 30mg, i have bumped up to 40mg and i have no complaints. i have all a and b grades, i can focus on my school work, and get things accomplished in a reasonable amount of time. only critisicm i have is the fact that is caused me to go from messy to borderline ocd. however, i like cleaning and i see it as a plus side to the medication. as is usual for add and adhd medicines, i experience easy mood swings and sudden out bursts of anger, loss of appetite, and lack of sleep. however, overall i am extremely pleased as a high schooler who was struggling."
