It is funny because Vyvanse gave me weird side effects without any benefit (too long ago to remember) while the ER methylphenidate had a progressively more effective benefit with zero side effects for me as the dosage went up to the one I settled on. Been taking it for years and have to justify to insurance once a year that no, I don't want to try the ones that didn't work just let me stay on this.
Glad to hear you found one that works for you!
