How bad are everyone else's side effects? I currently take a 30mgXR in the morning and 10mgIR part way through the day. I can get some facial tics and other OCD like symptoms. They aren't bad enough to lower my dose or make other changes at this point. Just wondering what others are experiencing and if anyone has any tips or tricks to dealing with stuff like that.

Adderall, 20mg once a day when I wake up, no side effects other than lack of appetite. On Vyvanse, I had rapid heartbeat and jitteriness, and in some ways it made the “squirrels” even louder. I also had appetite suppression, but it was more binary and off/on than Adderall and the binge eating was harder to control as the day wore on.

I’m also sleeping better with Adderall vs Vyvanse.

I’m sorry to hear your side effects.
