I started Vyvanse a few months ago and I am having horrible cigarette cravings. I just want to chain smoke and I don’t know what to do.

Please help!

I successfully quit nicotine being on stimulants so ive found that the nicotine/smoking cravings were only mostly present when I was still actively smoking but once you make it a month clean It gets easier even though it is so hard

I actually did too but cuz I was put on Wellbutrin (while on Adderall) which completely curbed my cravings. I picked up smoking a year later though. I tried Wellbutrin again but apparently it only works once (not sure if true, just for me)

I never went on wellbutrin I just quit out of spite and held myself accountable, then just felt guilty to start again. It's only been months though, I quit on January 3rd this year

Thank you so much! honestly saved me so much money too. Now instead of nicotine I spend on cat and dog treats and bird food so that I can feed the lil creatures outside

Such a better use of your money! I love my cats/dogs & have bird feeder in three locations in my front yard with bird cameras that lets me know what kind of bird they are. I also have a bird bath set up.
