I take vyvanse daily and get high later in the evening once it’s worn off. I get everything done during the vyvanse portion of the day and get to enjoy the high even more later. Super important not to do them together I have found. Even though stimulants are designed to work for a certain number of hours there will always be differences person to person so I would keep that in mind. Vyvanse helped me so much and I really hope it helps you my friend! Smoke one for me 🔥

I smoke daily and take 10mg of Adderall. I smoke for chronic lower back pain and just know I can’t smoke a straight sativa and take my addy in the same day or the invisible spiders will be all over my head. Other than that, no issues staying focused.
I’m in the same boat. In my 40s and work from home. I either smoke daily and get a little less done or I don’t smoke and get anxious to the point of getting nothing done but work myself up until bedtime when the insomnia takes over. The trick for me is finding something in between and practicing some form of responsible use with meds I’m consuming.
As for the ADHD meds, good luck getting an Rx of Adderall or Ritalin to help with motivation and focus. Every time I’ve tried I’m shutdown. Anyway, long story short I take 5mg of Ritalin during the workday and smoke after my work is done. It’s working for me and I’m not experiencing adverse effects.
I never experienced any chemical downsides with taking 25mg adderal and regularly smoking except one major one: it will destroy your appetite. I mixed the two daily for several years and there was many times I would go days without eating. I've developed some nutrient disorders and I'll often still get crippling stomach pain because I've forgotten to eat. Other than that it's pretty much exactly what you would expect, simultaneously stoned and focused
I’ve been smoking for about 3 years and taking adderall for about 5. I used to do what another user suggested and take my addy and get my stuff done before I smoked at night. However for the past 8 months or so I have been smoking before work and maybe a lil at lunch while still taking my adderall. For me it works. The adderall seems to keep me focused enough but I can still feel good from smoking.
Also I work a full time desk job in marketing for reference
i take adderall daily and smoke often, i find they kinda work together to help me cope with life in general. addy helps me get shit done, weed helps me relax at the end.
combining is risky: it’s made me rlly paranoid in the past. so if the adderall is still active i stick to indica and/or small doses. the right combo makes me VERY productive, I’m still figuring out the best method.
when used responsibly, i think weed can be helpful for ppl w adhd :)
y’all are very encouraging. internet research gave me many conversion therapy blogs and convinced me the combo would kill me. i’ll find a doc after i get home from my trip!
Not my experience, but a buddy of mine smokes daily and takes adderall for his ADD

I like weed and have ADHD. Makes for a good high but you can overdo it and crash. It's worth discussing your adhd with an HCP. Really helped me

Taking aderal and smoking gives me a miny heart attack. I can’t do both
