Lol i was just talking about vyvanse in another thread, I was prescribed them back before i was diagnosed bipolar. First of all they were great for productivity, went from a ~C student to straight As in college. On the downside I had horrrible rage issues, so bad i had to stop taking them. The slightest annoyance would have me breaking things, my phones, fighting with people, followed by being ashamed of myself and feeling insane. This usually happened during the comedown though. I'm sure there are things to help this though, but i personally said screw meds i'm going to just be myself as long as i'm not hurting myself or anyone. I'd like to also note anger/depression issues were a huge problem for me on a lot of meds, especially the ADD meds, this isn't the case for everyone. I'm usually a laid back person naturally, but also have a temper at times, i think the drugs bring that part out of me and make it a lot more uncontrollable.
