Summary
In November 2023 they said that early in their long COVID, Vyvanse let them carry on and keep doing sports despite being exhausted, which they felt made them worse. They were now scared to take it, yet said that without it they were unable to function and that even a walk hurt them. No onset date, duration or recovery was given.
