I started taking methylphenidate recently, but went through a stressful patch and suspect it contributed to a period of bad anxiety. That's mostly better now, and the doc prescribed me vyvanse (Elvanse here in UK) instead.
Pretty terrified it will trigger anxiety again so I've not touched it. Considering just taking the odd methylphenidate here and there as it doesn't last all day.
Anyone willing to share relevant experiences? Not looking to be told what to do, I will make my own decisions... π
OK well, first dose of Elvanse this morning, seems gentler than the Ritalin / methylphenidate. I'm more patient and chilled. Still couldn't be arsed to hoover the kitchen though! π
I used to start to feel strung out on methylphenidate mid afternoon, so we'll see...
