Seeking Advice on ADHD Medication and Hallucinations

hello!!! i've been suspected to have ADHD for a couple years now, but with poor communication between clinics/psychologists, i've only finally been able to be properly diagnosed within the last month. i'm seeking treatment and after meeting with my psychiatrist, i'm interested in starting with stimulants. i was told that i would likely start with ritalin, adderall, or vyvanse, so i'm getting ready to research these!!! one concern my psychiatrist and i have is how it'll affect me and hallucinations i experience. my hallucinations get much worse under stress/high anxiety, so we hope that medication will help those things and in turn we won't have to worry about them, but i'm interested in hearing what others might've experienced!!!
