I don’t have my Vyvanse. I abused it initially at the beginning of my 90-day refill and went over and now I’m asking for an emergency refill and… Yeah…

It’ll be a month until I get Vyvanse again.

I used it to get through a scary time in my life, but I’m through it now.

But now I have no Abilify (lost it) and Vyvanse (until next month).

I will say this: being without Vyvanse is not as bad as I thought it would be.

And the cannabis gummies I’m taking sort-of ease things (if anyone knows any that cuts through brain fog or make me think clearer, let me know).

But honestly, it was my own damn fault.

And now I’m switching to BlueCross BlueShields because I have no insurance; the Abilify refill cost $2,000 without my old insurance.

Again, I accept that it was my own fault, but I’m glad that I at least was able to get a job.

Thanks, everyone, for cheering me on in getting that job.

It was a lot easier than I thought it would be.

I’m not sure if there is a therapy for withdrawal, but someone in my family is seeing if they can find a “withdrawal therapist” while I wait till mid-February for my Vyvanse pill refill.

    You need the abilify more, for everything. To be honest, I’m not sure Vyvanse without abilify* is a good idea, by any stretch of the imagination.

      Isn’t Abilify with Vyvanse bad for you? I was just told that.

        I’m not a doctor, but from what I’m reading, there have been not great interactions. I would ask your doctor.

          My psychiatrist is a bit of a pill-pusher…

          I am trying to switch psychiatrists.

            Perhaps you may reread your original post and the entire thread and sit with that, in a calm and quiet moment.
