I tried 9 days of Concerta 36mg. Felt absolutely nothing. I hear people without ADD get hyper on this. Just nothing. A coffee does 100x more.
I went into the same doctor today. She prescribed me 10mg biphentin instead, told me it's something different. I asked for adderall XR, so she also gave me a script for 10mg adderall xr.
I asked her what to do. She said:
- fill one script, see if it works, if it doesn't, take multiple pills in a day
- if that doesn't work, fill the other script, and do the same thing... try 10mg one day, then 20mg, and then 30mg
This feels like a shitshow of medical advice.
She also didn't seem to know that biphentin is the same as concerta. They're both just one thing: Methylphenidate. They just release at different rates. If 36mg of Concerta did shit all, 10mg of biphentin is a joke. That's like giving someone a blue caffeine pill at 10mg because the red caffeine pill at 40mg didn't wake them up. So I'm worried that she would give me a 10mg script for biphentin. Is she just testing me to see if I react to placebo?
I also asked her for 20mg adderall XR, she said start at 10mg. She was really apprehensive giving me the script.
How the fuck do I find a proper psychiatrist or medical doctor who doesn't prescribe me the same fucking thing in a different brand name, telling me it's something different?
