I know this post is old, but did it help? I originally stopped taking ADHD meds (probably Vyvanse) because they absolutely decimated my already poor appetite. I really want to start something, but I don't want that again.

In my experience, yes my meds do help a lot. I can't do stimulants and have found that Strattera is a great alternative. I'm able to work and keep focus. I've been taking it for over a decade now.
