Re meds:
I have good insurance, so my meds are five bucks a month for name brand vyvanse.
I take it on the morning on work days, and it is literally life changing. Kicks in pretty quickly, and the focus is amazing. I get so much coding done when it’s doing its job.
Lasts till about 5pm then it wears off.
Yeah when it wears off it SUCKS.
Adderall definitely made me real bitchy when I came down. Also anxiety.
But vyvanse is much smoother and I dont have the crash.
