Thanks again for the info,
How's the Adrafinil going for you so far? Did you try the Modafinil first?
My doctor swears up and down that pstims DO NOT work as ADs, but I swear that the Ritalin analogs help me. I just got the doctor to admit to me today that for some people adderal (real amphetamine) can cause people to get depressed. I've been taking that for the last three weeks, thinking that it might be more effective on my mood and energy than the Ritalin type drugs. I guess it is for some people, but for me it just brought me down even further than I've been. He told me that amphetamine can cause nerve cells to get depleted of dopamine for some people and that depression is a common side effect. He said it's not a problem with Ritalin. Anyway, since the Ritalin analogs seem to help me with my mood, and the Adrafinil is a stimulating AD, it seems to me that it may be helpful.
And, yes this site is HTML-enabled. Thanks again,
Tim
