    Set an alarm for an hour and a half before you wake up. Pop the Vyvanse then go back to sleep. Makes it so much easier to get out of bed once the meds start hitting.

      I don’t understand. What is this magical ability you are referencing?

        For me, it is earplugs. It’s uncanny how much they help me go to sleep.

          I definitely use them when traveling to get to sleep, but if I’ve slept 3-4 hours and get woken up, it’s over for the night.

              Thanks, I have Xanax if I really really need to sleep for something that’s going on the next day, otherwise I just deal with it.

            Moldex Spark Plugs. I have tried dozens of brands and these are unbeatable. https://www.amazon.com/Moldex-6604-Sparkplugs-Earplugs-Uncorded/dp/B0015TD50C

      Hour for me with adderall. It’s especially great if you need to wake up super early for some reason.
