I Have Been Taking Btw 40 And 50mg Of Vyvanse

I have been taking btw 40 and 50mg of Vyvanse since September 2015. My dr also added 10mg of Adderall to make it through my 12 to 15 hr shifts at work. I STOPPED taking vyvanse because I am without insurance as I am in between jobs and still looking for a new job. I figured since I wasn't at work I didn't need the medication for concentration. However, since coming off the medication I have anxiety, insomnia followed by excessive periods of sleeping and fatigue. I am very moody and I have put on 12 lbs since stopping (6 weeks ago). I don't recall losing any weight when going on the medication back in September. For the weight gain I have been going to the gym for 2 hrs, 5 days a week without improvement in weight or getting my clothes to fit again. Is this weight issue from taking the medication and then stopping? If so, when will the weight start to come off with my regular exercise? I am getting very discouraged!
