How You Stopped Taking ADD Meds to Try Alternatives...

In a previous post, I mentioned the wearing off of vyvanse and my increased irritability and depression at that time of day. I'm also on lamictal (mood stabilizer). I went off of the vyvanse on my own because it makes me less relaxed, more edgy, unable to stay in the present, and hyper focused to the point where I feel sooo rigid. Now that I'm just on lamictal, I feel more normal, stable, relaxed. Sure it's harder to be the super woman I was on vyvanse but the depressive symptoms are gone. I no longer want to be amped up on AMPs.

that plus, meds are sooo expensive.

Anyone else in the same boat who has tried other non AMP therapies and succeeded?
