Stimulants Strange Vyvanse Effects This Time

Ok so I had sleep, ate breakfast, had some soda then took about 30 mg of Vyvanse and vitamins. Worked for about 2 hours then I went to work out. Came back, feeling like normal, took an antacid this time, took about another 30 mg and I've been laying in bed, tired as hell, but unable to sleep. I know it could be acidic stomach from 2 sodas because my whole family has acid reflux (I don't however) and if I don't take antacid, Vyvanse just isn't as potent

Usually these effects only happen with a really low dose, and a moderate to high dose has me manic. But this is a pretty high dose for me and I wanted to sleep.

Another thing I found strange was I hadn't consumed caffeine for weeks until this morning, so I figured any stimulant tolerance (except nicotine) would be impossible.

Does anyone know what could cause this to happen?
 
So not be able to sleep on amphetamines is a strange effect for you?

No, what I found strange was the fact that I was extremely tired about an hour after taking the amount of Vyvanse that makes me hypo-manic. Perhaps I poorly worded my post.
 
Yeah, your post makes it sound like you've trying to take Vyvanse for sleep.
With both methamphetamine and amphetamines, I found them basically ineffective 1-2 days into a binge.
 
Vyvanse seems to produce that brain fog feeling. more easily than other amphetamines. I'll find that if I'm sleep deprived or haven't eaten I'll get it and feel kinda drained even if it's my first dose. You said youd eaten but I'm wondering if the working out somehow undid that. You know how when you work out (ok at least if I worked out for two hours xD, you're probably in better shape than me) I'll be famished after the work out but I'll be craving healthy foods. Its possible that if you're body was hungry from losing calories that in not replacing them it put strain thus producing that unable to focus feeling that you know wont go away until you sleep but you gotta wait it out until you can sleep and you want to redose in the meantime. Idk man, I was prescribed vyvanse for a few years and the one thing I can say with decent confidence is that if you redose it'll fuck you up more than most. Also idk if it has to do with how it's processed but vyvanse seems more sensitive to not eating thanpure (it wouldn't let me put a space!!!!) Dex. Who knows. Interestingly, I always found vyvanse the best cure to an all nighter, more so than other stims. Well, they work, but only for 2 hours or so. Hmmm... Now I'm tempted to do an experiment xD next time I've accidentally stayed up all night from dex take like 100mgs vyvanse and see how functional I am. I hypothesize that if I eat breakfast an hour before dosing it'll work out better than basically not taking the vyvanse and doing something else. Sorry if I'm not very helpful I wasn't quite sure what you were asking and just kinda went on a rant. :/
 
have you tried taking it on an empty stomach? i was told by a doctor to ensure the pill goes down well by swallowing it with warm water on an empty stomach so that the pill can dissolve correctly and such. i take the same dose of vyvanse, but always before food. taking it after food, i can usually fall asleep with no problem and it doesn't kick in til way later. not sure if this was helpful but hopefully it was.

however i think what you have to offer on the topic is insightful! ;)
