So, after a week of taking the Vyvanse, I ended up having a panic attack. Only, I didn’t realize it was a panic attack and went to the ER to get it looked at. I’d never had a panic attack before where I literally thought I would pass out. Everything was fine. No signs of physical strain or stress. No damage done, but it made me nervous enough about having another one that I stopped using it and went back to my psychiatrist to talk about what else we could do.

I’m now taking an anti-depressent to help with anxiety. (Let’s face it, I’m one heck of a worrier by nature. So far, it seems to be keeping me pretty even keeled. I’m not getting the same level of “focus” as I did on the Vyvanse, but I feel better about it and am finding that I’m not as quick to waffle between emotions either.
