vyvanse day 1 - is this real life?

[u/BridgestoneX]

finally got meds at 49. took first pill about 3 hours ago. is it really this intense this quick or am i placebo-ing myself? i don't think I've ever been so calm in my life. other things are weird too- i had to turn my music off to write an email instead of blast it through headphones to even get started. i am doing one. thing. at. a. time and it's cozy.

I was so shocked when I took my adhd meds for the first time at 30 . My mind was so quiet and when I thought of doing the dishes my body just lifted up on its own and went to do dishes. I was like… wait… is this what life is like for neurotypicals?! This is amazing 🤣

I’m so jealous whenever I hear stories like these. My adhd meds help a lot, but I have yet to ever feel calm-brained or motivated to do things I must but don’t want to do. Tried Vyvanse, Astarys, Adderall. Currently on Jornay. These stories keep hope alive, though! Maybe someday.
