Vyvanse is dope it is metabolized into the drug that dexedrine is. I think it's called dexamphetamine.
These ADD meds actually work that's why they are prescribed over the snake oil options like piracetam.
what do you mean they actually work? Please explain/elaborate. Please respond.

Piracetam is snake oil basically and vyvanse and dexedrine and all that junk actually work.

I tried taking 600mg of Adrafinil instead of taking my usual dose of 30mg of adderall XR....it was terrible. I was exhausted all day from not taking the amphetamine and the Adrafinil did nothing to help with it. In fact I was sleepy all day, even after drinking 68mg caffeine and taking a 10mg adderall IR while I should still be under the effects of Adrafinil....anyone know wtf is up? Is it because my body is used to the dopaminergic effects that Adrafinil doesnt have?

I imagine pharmacologically they don't have the same method of action... and withdrawal effects from continued amp usage pretty strong..

Yah, I've tried both modafinil and adrafinil. Go with the moda if you're going down that path. It's a strange drug. Not terribly euphoric/recreational, but it will keep you going.
There were actually a few days where I laid down and actually fell asleep on it, but I've done that on adderall xr before loads of time(I just normally end up jolting upright in 30 minutes when the meds kick in).
I would say it's worth trying, but it might just not be for you. If you're looking for something close to amphetamines, you'll probably be disappointed.

Yeah I'll just give all my Adrafinil to my mom, it will probably work for her and now she won't try to 'borrow' my adderall when she has to work on something. The amp w/d make adra useless to me....fuggen sucks

Modafinil sounds like a poor man's adderall.

that's funny because I actually get adderall for less money than adrafinil....I just want an alternative to amphetamine.

its like adderall with no euphoria that feels more clean and calm and lasts longer. The two are very similar IMO

I have a modafinil RX because I work shift work in a plant.
I relate it to aderall, without the jitters, and the intense drugged feeling you get from it. I have to take it before 8pm to stay up until 6 am if I'm going to take it. And that's generally with a 1mg dose (half of my 2mg pill)

Piracetam isnt 'snake oil' dude. Shit works great for me, not too much of a body load. Modiodal (Modifinil) is sold OTC in Mexico and 'the guy' we get all our doo dads and gifts from Mexico from brings a little supply if I ask. Anywas, that shit is ROUGH. Every time I take it I break out a huge nasty cold sore! Disgust! But the 2-4 hours before the I-just-wanna-die-life-is-fucking-pointless comedown, I'm BOOMING and ZOOMING. Speed up like a motherfucker.
Then again, maybe my Mexican Modifinil is really meth. 
P.S. I've also taken that other one, forget it's name, that is converted into Modifinil by yr liver. That was a shit experience as well.
Speed is fucking garbage. Coffee is shitty enough for me, thanks!

Modafinil is one of the most expensive drugs I've ever seen.

A 30 second web search found cheaper prices than that...not sure if these are legit places though. I get it for like 30-40$. Not that I would anymore, as I said, shit is nasty and wrecks my body.

A valid point. There's always a balancing act between paying too much and getting questionable quality product.
