Towards the end of last semester SWIM started taking Vyvanse. Before SWIM knew it, SWIM had been taking Vyvanse for a month and a half. Swim's dosing was very out of whack. SWIM first started taking it only when it was available, but later pursued a steady supply. SWIM ended up staying awake for very long periods of time. SWIM also experienced a very bad interaction with prescription strength allergy medicine while on Vyvanse. SWIM smoked marijuana on Vyvanse; seldom at first, but during the last week of use SWIM smoked a lot of Marijuana. SWIM smokes Marijuana frequently.
SWIM lost half a pill one day, and therefore decided to save the rest of what SWIM had until more could be acquired. This was exactly three weeks ago and SWIM has still not taken more. What was at first a desire to "stock up," has turned into a conviction to stop completely. SWIM is feeling a heavy physical depression. SWIM wakes up from hours of sleep, only to want more sleep. It is as if SWIM gets tired of sleeping, then needs to wake up briefly so as to be able to sleep more. I'm fortunate enough to not have to work over the summer, and that's a good thing, because it would be impossible if I had to. Now that SWIM is not constantly studying, the symptoms of Vyvanse; both on and off, have become a great burden. The twitching is the most concerning. SWIM has stopped playing video games completely for fear that calling upon once fine-tuned fast twitch muscles will bring on more twitching. This is not an acceptable consequence for SWIM. It's already half way into the summer, and SWIM hasn't played any video games yet. I know, the horror, right?
SWIM doesn't feel sad or lonely. SWIM's sense of humor is intact and SWIM feels relatively "happy;" but that might just be circumstantial. SWIM's constantly accompanied by SWIM's friends and girlfriend. But SWIM's girlfriend is starting to reflect SWIM's own lethargic state. What I've found online about Vyvanse is either people praising it, as SWIM did, or people relating their experience with withdrawal after binge using. I'm posting to find out about people's experience with Vyvanse cessation after using it for an extended period of time. Nobody writes anything about it who has actually stopped using it, it seems. Most everything I've found concludes with "so now I'm only taking this much," or "but now I've found the right dose." Is there any way off this roller coaster? Cause this sucks. For SWIM, Vyvanse cessation has been completely debilitating. It's been three weeks and things only seem to be getting worse. SWIM is tempted to take some, just to see if it would make a difference. But SWIM wants to go back to just beer and Marijuanna. SWIM was perfectly happy, and functional, with just that.
