Yup. I take 2 every 4-5 hours. Tried the long release one, but it didn't work for me. It seemed to all release in the one go.

Not OP, but chiming in re: the slow release....I'm on 70mg Vyvanse which seems to keep me going throughout the day. I asked the doc about Dexys and he said I shouldn't need them for a top up

First of all, good to hear from ya! Second, North won a game, yay. Third, if someone, hypothetically offered Vyvanse to me would that have the same effect as dex? Like as in the motivation mode? ๐Ÿ˜‰

For a normal person, you'd be pretty amped up. For ADHD you'd be really chilled out.

Yeah there's one where you only have to take 1 tablet a day called Vyvanse. It's a pain in the ass to organise your life in 5 hour blocks.

I've always got a small tin of tablets on me at work so I can duck out to the bathroom and take 2 even if I'm in a meeting.
