Medication & Side Effects Is your adhd better with completely quitting alcohol?

I’m 40 days alcohol free. I feel a ton ton ton better. My adhd is better. I am still starting vyvanse today to try to help myself through the daily adhd struggles. Anyone having similar time? Thoughts ? Any tips on vyvanse ? Any thoughts on alcohol free?

I have never really been a drinker due to how weird it makes me... Like my hyper focus goes sideways into paranoia

Same. Weed is awful for me. The only time I ever enjoyed it is when it was paired with alcohol lol, and that just made me feel extra drunk.
