Yes, I take it. Works well for my ADHD. It's a smoother rise than the other stimulants, and for me it doesn't have a letdown at the end. Best of luck if you try it.

I am BP1. All psychiatrists are different and have different views on stimulant use. No idea what yours would do. Have they refused to prescribe stimulants in the past?

I take it for my adhd, and I have BP1. its the only stimulant I've been on that doesn't send me straight to mania town. very subtle, yet effective. I love it. If I had to pick only one med to be on vyvanse would be it.

Coming down off vyvanse made me dangerously depressed. I had to be put on a AD and stop taking the stims.
