Can I Take 'vyvanse' For GAD Disorder?
Sure, I had been having issues with my g.a.d. disorder which I have been on klonopins for years for. Well I somehow misplaced my meds or a friend found them, anyway another friend of mine is taking vyvanse for add and talked me into trying them out. They worked great and they worked very well. So to say all that just to ask this, dio you think I may also have add?

HI
Thanks for using healthcare magic
Vyvanse contains amphetamine and it is a stimulant. It is effective in ADD and if you try it, it could increase anxiety symptoms. In your case, there is no role of vyvanse. You can try antidepressant like paroxetine or venlafaxien, that would help to control anxiety symptoms. You can also try some relaxation exercise that would keep you calm. In case, you need further help, you can ask.
Thanks
