I recently started taking Vyvanse, it’s been about a week. It really does make things easier to do. Previously I had taken it for about a week and everything was going well but then I started getting anxious and depressed. Quit it for a while, started it up again and the same thing is happening. Anybody else experienced something similar? Does it go away?

Elvanse (Vyvanse) has definitely made me more tense but it’s always made me less anxious and depressed because of how it’s improved my executive dysfunction.
