So my insurance just kicked in and i have crazy low copays so along with some other things im thinking of switching from the shitty vyvanse im taking now back to adderall. While the adderall wont be that much at all the generic is like 20 bucks for a 90 day supply. Ive heard that the generic is fucking awful though so i was wondering if anyone had had any experience with it???

I've snorted it, seemed to work well. For real though, you talking about the tablets or Extended Release caps?
I've seen both generic forms used for awhile now and hear very few complaints, especially when you let 'em know how much brand name will run. There are a few different generic brands available so if one doesn't work for you, try a pharmacy that stocks another.
Otherwise, flip 'em for profit and buy some pedals.

Preeetty sure most generics are 100% 1:1 copies...the people who say it's different are the people whose brains tell them they're not the same.

Generics are the exact same thing. Nothing different.

you'd want to check, but i believe that to be approved for sale by the FDA the active ingredient(s) in generic equivalents have to be 100% chemically identical to the original name-brand product. it's possible, in fact likely, that the carrier medium--the actual capsule or inert pill--does not have to be identical.

Yeah, I think vyvanse is somehow design as an extended release, and so there's no reason to snort them. If you do, it's just going to run through your sinuses and down your throat anyway.
and since it's ER it lacks that kick adderall users are probably accustomed to.

I used to open the time release capsules and put all the little blue beads under my tongue and let them dissolve when I would play in cs lan tournaments. Works very well for intense but shortened length, but I can't say how well they work when used as directed, I would imagine they're fine.

Vyvanse wont work if you snort it because it requires an enzyme in your stomach or some shit like that, it also sucks at what its supposed to do. I didn't snort shit anyway.
Adderall XR worked the best but they all made me crazy like 10 girls PMSing at once. So, meh.
Also just realized that I am responding to spaceritual which is rather pointless now.
