I took vyvanse my whole childhood for ADHD and it made me not hungry ever, and after I got off of vyvanse, I couldn’t regulate my appetite and became a binge eater. I think these medicines are extremely powerful and they train us to become dependent on them if we are not careful. I’m not suggesting this works for everyone but sometimes it’s more effective to develop strategies to manage the ADHD (and BED for others) so that your mind can create new patterns. This was much harder for me but I feel is leading to a better future. This was the better way for me personally but I understand that not everyone is the same. Thanks for the video 👍

Thank you for this comment! 🙌🏻 Developing behavioural strategies to manage ADHD/BED are absolutely essential and should always be the foundation of treatment before turning pharmaceuticals. And for many people, medications are not the answer. Thank you for sharing your story.
