"i am 16 and i started using vyvanse a little over one month ago. i am a very bright student but i found myself struggling through school. i was diagnosed with add around 4th grade. i have always had trouble focusing and staying on task. i tried concerta, ritalin, strattera and adderal. after taking those i took about a 4 year break from medicine. i began welbutrin and am now taking that in combination with vyvanse. my grades improved tremendously. i can now focus and it shows. i went from a d in algebra/geo to an a. my life and confidence has improved more than i ever thought possible. i do have decreased appetite but other than that, this medicine is literally making my future brighter everyday."
