My Vyvanse experience: The first 2 months were awesome and I was maintaining a 4.0 in college. Typically I'm a 3.0 student at best without meds. After 2 months, the good side effects started to wear off and I was left with cold sweats, no appetite, insomnia, paranoia, and agitation. Getting off the drug took a while because when I first stopped, I felt so desensitized to everything and downright exhausted all the time. Now I'm drug free and feel great.
Yeah, that's called tolerance, an adaptation of the dopaminergic receptivity of the limbic system. However, patients consuming the drug to treat ADHD, narcolepsy, chronic fatigue syndrome, etc., still attain a therapeutic benefit from psychostimulant drugs after the "feel good" period has passed. Your abuse of stimulants and subsequent self-indulgent dosage increases in no way make the drugs "a bad thing;" addictive?, sure. . . if used improperly.

Vyvanse sucks. In the beginning it was great, then I needed more to feel good. These drugs are a bad thing.
