I can take 60 mg. of Adderall and actually FALL ASLEEP on some days. So frustrating.

I've never tried Vyvanse, but if I sit down too long on any of my meds I can drop off to sleep in short order. Tell your doctor. He might try you on other meds that are more effective. Some work well for some, but not so much on others.

Yes it’s so aggravating. Then someone will say “ did you take your meds?l. That even makes me more mad

Thank God no one was hurt, my first clue that something was wrong was when I started falling asleep behind the wheel in broad daylight.
