Vyvanse helped me quit cocaine for good
Hey not sure how many people can relate to this, but ever since I started taking 40mg of vyvanse for my diagnosed ADHD I have noticed my cocaine cravings completely disappear which makes me really happy. I wasn't diagnosed with ADHD until a few months ago and have struggled with substance use disorders for many years, particularly cocaine. I met with my doctor who is very sweet and does not judge me at all and she said that my addictions stem from the confusing depression and poor impulse control of ADHD. She said that I should go to drug rehab before she would prescribe me any stimulants. While the rehab was very effective in the CBT skills that were utilized, after leaving rehab I did manage to stay clean from all drugs but I did get cravings for a few weeks after getting out. When I was finally able to see my doctor post rehab she gave me vyvanse and it totally changed my life. I've never felt any urge to use any drugs that are not prescribed to me whatsoever. Can anyone else relate? Just curious.
