Vyvanse 80 Mg (40mg X 2) And Having To Stay Awake Now
Updated
Alessia Says:
Well I've had many late nights the past 7 months on vyvanse but I have never had a full one..I'm talking up since 11 am yesterday and it's currently 8 am (took 80mg but at like..3pm)..really no point in sleeping now, and I took 0.5 mg of clonazepam and it did nothing.
BASICALLY for me to get through the day (until 10 pm ish) should I get the f*** up and get a vanilla latte at Starbucks and then take my 80 mg again? I really hate feeling as if I'm "abusing" my medication because it truly has worked wonders for my GAD and inability to focus...
But right now is crunch time and I have to finish a paper today for tomorrow, and I have class 6-9 I need to be alert for (in class-quiz)...
HELP PLEASEEE

Hi Alessia,
It sounds like this medication is working too well if you've been wide awake for more than 24hours straight! These types of medications can be very powerful, so I definitely wouldn't recommend taking any more than you feel your body can handle; especially if it's over the originally prescribed dose. Doing so may just result in a built up tolerance and/or an increased risk of side effects.
Have you considered trying anything else outside of Starbucks (perhaps a natural alternative) for a more mellow "buzz" that wont keep you up so long? Or is that your intention? Just try not to burn yourself out. Our body's can only function on overdrive for so many hours before it has a mental or physical breakdown.
