Serious question.

Looking for someone who might have some good input and opinions.

Contentious topic here. Speaking specifically and only about prescribed, and for legitimate purposes.

y u wanna know

cuz had attention difficulties my entire life

coped, graduated but from an English degree when I should've done science or business

doing a business graduate program now

all the coping strategies I have employed have helped me this point but ultimately I needed additional help

completed my entire English major without reading even a book's worth of content, even if you combined everything I read throughout all my courses

doc prescribed me

looking to hear from anyone else who has experience

have the meds helped at all?

just started today

they helped, side effects are next to zero if anything at all

benefits outweigh the side effects by a ton, but the benefits aren't as big as I'd have thought

obviously I need to give this a shot for at least a week to see how it works over a longer period, but I'm already wondering whether the amphetamine side would be better such as adderall (I'm trying methylphenidate which is the ritalin side)... or if my dose is low since I'm 225lbs

Start meditating bro

got an app for that, haven't used it yet, i will give it a go

you don't wanna be on amphetamines long term.

if ur at college someone will have an adderral

Methylphenidate crew checking in.

Second day with 32mg concerta. Feels like a clean coffee, nothing else really. First day was good, first day reduced distractions a lot more, helped me focus (but not for *that* long). Today it's like... not really doing much.

No side effects. Benefits are minimal.
