adhd
"42 year old male recently diagnosed with ADD (no hyperactivity).  Vyvanse is the only medication I've tried and I'm reasonably happy with it.  Started 30 mg for 2 weeks.  Felt a little jittery and had a funny taste in my mouth.  Increased to 70 mg.  No longer feel jittery, no funny taste, but my mouth is always dry so I drink a lot of water.

Vyvanse seems to help me get more done.  I can't say I'm more focused, but I am more motivated, so the end result is more productivity, though not always directed in the best place.

It decreased my appetite, so it was easier to switch to a healthier diet.  Lost more than 25 lbs. in first 3 months, which has also helped increase self esteem, motivation and energy level."
