be careful on Vyvanse it can cause severe hypomania and severe anger especially if you have bipolar disorder in your family I may or may not have bipolar disorder I don't know but I think my initial "bipolar" was triggered by Vyvanse when I was a child

I've taken Adderall, but since I couldn't get it lately, I've been on vyvanse. I think the Adderall worked better for me personally. My friend has only ever taken Ritalin, and says it's good.

I was actually thinking about trying Vyvanse, but my insurance wanted me to use Adderall first. The short-acting Adderall worked, but I hated when it wore off at lunchtime. So I'm on the XR version, and quite happy with it.

ritalin is good but wears off. I think is a great alternative

Since I can't access stimulants I have been on Strattera for a few years and it does help me a bit with focus and executive functioning. I think stimulants would potentially be better for me but at least the Strattera is something.

Pristiq was awful for me. Lost appetite and nauseous 24/7.

I had to look this one up. It's an antidepressant used off-label to treat ADHD. Sorry to hear you had a bad experience. Have you tried anything else?

I had to look that one up. It's methylphenidate, the same active ingredient as Ritalin. I don't think the brand name Xaggitin is in the US. Me, I couldn't sleep when I tried it, and it didn't help at all. My son is on it, though, and it's helping him.
