"i&#039;ve tried so many medications that really did nothing for me except give me more mental problems. when i started on vyvanse, i felt invincible. if you&#039;ve ever watched the movie limitless, that&#039;s exactly how it feels! there was this short period of time that i took a break every now and then, do not do that! it made me chronically bipolar but i&#039;ve started up on it and it really is the best medication you could have. if you wish to get off of it, i suggest you do so slowly and on days you don&#039;t have it, drink caffeine. it took me 6 months to not have that addictive feeling, now i&#039;m back on it because i&#039;m going back to school. it&#039;s up to you to say whether the side effects out way the epic benefits. it took me a while to figure that out. good luck!"
