Anyone on stimulants + glp1?
I started taking Vyvanse 30 mg about 5-6 weeks ago and I’ve been taking breaks on the weekends, mainly to catch up on sleep.
Every night that I take it, I can fall asleep, but have a very light sleep with vivid dreams, and then wake up in the middle of the night. The days right after the glp1 shot, I find myself staying awake longer overnight (hours.) My psych told me to not skip it on the weekends anymore but I just need to get a good nights sleep because I look and feel like crap from not sleeping.
Idk if I should switch to something with a shorter half life or possibly skip the glp1 and see how I do with the Vyvanse, but the not sleeping is making me question if this is even worth taking. As far as controlling the ADHD symptoms, my symptoms are worse at home than at work, so I’m not even benefitting much since I’m skipping weekends to get sleep. I guess maybe I can start skipping weekdays instead.
