Just a little update I guess on these “feelings” and how my meds are working. The prozac is still working great and the doctor has increased my Vyvanse dose to 50mg which is great. I guess coffee doesnt work well with Vyvanse either. I thought with the caffeine content being smaller than that in an energy drink that it wouldnt effect me. But nope. Terrible idea!
During my work day of 12 hours, I normally take my dose of Vyvanse at 6am so it will start working by 7am, then it wears off around 4pm which sucks because my day isnt even done. Then I get home and act michevious and impulsive which my husband and I both cant stand. So I have decided to not take my meds for work but for home life. I can cope at work fine without them its just when im at home trying to deal with kids etc etc etc. The only thing I like them at work for is that they stop me from tuning out while others are talking to me. But I always repeat instructions anyways, I just feel bad and hope they dont notice how I am zoned out. Ah well. Ill survive. Im going to try that out and see how it goes!
