Adderall does have a bad come down. Often depressive even on low XR doses.

Vyvanse is still amphetamine, so if it put you to sleep, are you sure you took enough?

20mg Adderall XR is about equivalent to 50mg Vyvanse, which is what I take.

Everyone I know switched from Adderall to Vyvanse and we all report the same thing -- much more gradual curve throughout the day and far less depressive on the come down. I'd consider Adderall XR to be a real tweak compared to Vyvanse and far less therapeutic for a day-to-day drug.

I may be mixing them up, I was around 15 when I last "experimented" with the different drugs.

I might talk to my doctor about my options next time I'm in there. The comedown doesnt bother me all that much, but I think it is starting to bother my wife as I can get a bit "cranky".
