Adderall was my only savior.

I went through college without it. I struggled so hard, tried so hard, I was so lucky to graduate with a shit gpa. Come home, see a doc, worked over time to get a medicine and dosage that worked, and it's like night and day. I feel like my brain works now.

Make the jump from adderall to vyvanse, it's a godsend!!! The way the medicine metabolizes is much smoother and less of the side effects than typical amphetamine salts

I've tried both, they were very similar to me. Not an incredibly noticeable difference- just giving my anecdotal experience!
