So basically I've been taking medication prescribed for my ADHD for years, probably since I was eight or nine. Over the years I have gone up dosages quickly and changed from Ridlin to Vyvance (I know they're spelled wrong). I am currently taking the highest dosage of Vyvance.
I don't want to have to change medications again, just to become tolerant to that. Does anyone know how to cope with the tolerance, or get rid of it for that matter?

When I had this problem, the doctor would stop my meds for a few weeks, then start me back up on it after they had gotten out of my system and my system had returned back to normal.
But talking to your doctor about it, because you're on a high dose, and i was only on the lowest so i didn't have to do any weening down or anything...
