So yeah, today was my first day on my new ADD medication called Vyvanse, apparently it is new and has not been approved by the FDA yet. It made me a little jittery but apparently that how it begins until you adjust to it. A test I took 5 years ago for ADD surfaced again when I was seeing my couselor guy therapist thing because of the whole ( Read more... )

Actually it is FDA approved, but uuuuh, it's an amphetamine, like crystal meth, so be careful??

well, I got fairly heavy meds, I'm takin the 70mg which is the max, so hopefully it'll do its job, it's funny because he was telling me of one of his patients who was in elementary who burped the national anthem and was crazy essentially, he started taking meds and his only complaint was his friends said "you are not funny anymore," luckily i have my wit to fall back on for that, but retarded such as this may dwindle

Semi personal, but I've been worrying a bit since I read this amyisyellow July 20 2007, 03:52:46 UTC
With all medications like that I'm just gonna put out a basic warning: Doctors can't be trusted. Make sure you check out what happens if you mix it with alcohol.

Apparently one of my panic meds when combined with alcohol had a tendancy to put people into comas and other bad shit. Despite three different doctors, I didn't find this out until I... you guessed it, drank a bit. Lucky I didn't fall into a coma, but I seriously thought I was gonna die and gave my roommate a pretty good scare. So yeah, not to be a killjoy or anything but before that wedding, read up on what you're taking.
