If you feel your Ritalin isn't working well enough then you must have specific reasons for that. The best thing to do is to make a list of the problems you are still having that, as you understand it, the Ritalin is supposed to be helping with. If you have friends or family who are willing to give you some feedback on both improvements that have been made as well as any problems they still see, that would be helpful to write down, too. There is a checklist of symptoms called the Adult ADD Checklist that the doc may be able to give you to take home to monitor your porgress. It's best to write this stuff down beforehand since it is often hard to think of specifics as you sit in the doc's office for the limited time available.
