Can I ask what you are on ? I have some adderall but it scares me I’ve only used it once .

Vyvanse. Essentially adderall but slow release. I’ve heard it’s much smoother when it comes on.

It's very similar but it's not the exact same (not including the time release part). Vyvanse is 100% dextroamphetamine after time release; adderall is 3/4 dextro and 1/4 levoamphetamine. Different people feel that differently, for example with only dextro I feel much calmer/less prone to anxiety, but without the small amount of levo I have trouble motivating myself and can fall asleep easily. They also have 100% dextro in instant release format: dexedrine or zenzedi.
