    Well, I discovered (the hard way) that unreasonable, explosive rage is a side effect of that, so Vyvanse costing 800 is a feature, not a bug.

      I found that I was more irritable on Vyvanse but I didn’t get explosive rage. Boring stuff like doing my laundry, getting to work on time, and brushing my teeth twice a day being less painful was more than a fair tradeoff imo.

        If you read the documents that come with the prescription, “rage” is one of the explicitly listed possible side-effects. I didn’t read that until after I had difficulty managing my emotions in the face of stupidity.

          Oh, not arguing that. I just didn’t get hit with that side effect. That sounds pretty awful honestly. I hate not feeling in control of my emotions.
