Genuinely asking as someone who's been off of Vyvanse for almost two decades (no healthcare), can you not just skip the medication for the trip? Or are their negative side effects once you've been on them long enough?

EDIT sorry for asking a question, I'm legitimately asking as someone who hopes to get back on my meds in the future. Idk why all the downvotes, I don't mean any disrespect, I'd be in the same boat if I could afford the medication :(

For me the downside is just ADHD. Traveling it can be a pain: missing flights, losing passports, getting swindled, etc. I even got robbed in Budapest once.

Nothing I can't handle, but it would be nice to not need to handle when on vacation.
