I'm also on Vyvanse, 60mg in the morning and 100mg of Wellbutrin which is an anti depressant, that targets the same brain chemicals as Vyvanse.

Vyvanse, helped but my depression often cancelled out the med, and SSRIs didn't help at all just made me have erectile issues which really didn't help my depression.

I brought up Wellbutrin with my doctor after reading about others with ADHD being successful with it...

I found out I had ADHD 4 years ago when I was 38, I'm almost certain I also have autism, as 3 people with ASD have flat out told me I did, and they listed a bunch of reasons and I passed a few online tests...I also over share a lot as you can see from this post.



Before getting on stimulants, I too have taken Wellbutrin/Bupropion and found it somewhat helpful. SSRIs made it worse for me.

I am quite surprised to be honest that you are taking Wellbutrin and Vyvanse at the same time. While not dangerous in terms of possible serotonin syndrome, this combination is a little bit concerning as Wellbutrin can raise the blood levels of amphetamines and lower seizure threshold.
