Is it bad to miss my old medication? It was a stimulant called vyvanse and it helped me so much in high school but I had to stop because of my POTS. No medication has given me the clarity and focus that vyvanse has. I went cold turkey since they wanted me off right away and no one told me about how that would affect my weight. They won’t prescribe me stimulants any more and that’s fine but is there anything else out there thats given the same effect as vyvanse? I get distracted so easy even when I have lists and reminders…it’s so bad, I’m crushed because it was so nice to have a quiet head and be able to listen and focus on what I want and need to do. Please help.
