To go against the grain of the other commenters, I’m not a woman but I have similar issues with tiredness, and prescribed stimulants have dramatically improved my life over the past ~15 years.
None of them are risk free, if you have short term memory issues like me which seems plausible, it’s easy to forget if you took the afternoon adderall.
Vyvanse/Elvanse etc are wonderful because you can just take it once in the morning and no rollercoaster. The downside is for me at least, it’s hard on the stomach until you get acclimated.
I don’t seem prone to misusing it now that I have gotten a good routine but it’s definitely a risk and I know many people who used it to cure boredom or avoid sleeping. That is a bad path and you don’t see it until too late.
It can be a lifesaver if you use it correctly.





I missed that detail, valid
