    Vyvanse ended up making the dog way bigger on some days, I’m on atomoxetine and that’s been way more manageable.

    In case anyone has found themselves to be sensitive to stimulant medication, don’t be afraid to ask about trying non-stimulants 🙂

        Try strattera. It’s not for everyone and it takes a bit of ramp-up but when it works it’s really awesome.

      Atoxetmine gave me wicked mood swings on the come down. And also, sexually, when I came, it would feel muted. Like felt like a 1/2 cum.

      This made my relationship with my wife waaaaay worse.

      Ritalin is the only ADHD med that Taiwan has access to. The come down is less intense.
