I can't remember when I didn't do this and the harder I try to concentrate, the worse it is. I may try to prepare a meal using a simple recipe and it's like everything my brain can think of tries to distract me.

My #1 invasive thoughts involve music lyrics and numbers. I have trouble reading because music lyrics will invade my thoughts.

I've been on Vyvanse now for almost a week and there is no doubt whatsoever this stimulant drug has calmed my jumbled thoughts. I feel calmer, more focused and I've dealt with the diluge of crazy thoughts for so long that it now feels like something is missing - but I'm so much happier.

There are two activities I can engage in that seem to triumph over the constant jumbled thoughts - sewing and gardening.
