> last two days have been very slow. i have been very tired and Concerta was no help. but then i slept badly. today i am better, though not at the point i was the first few days on it. i have a fear i react well to stims initially then they even out and don't help much. we'll see.
KK,There are a lot of posters here that have mentioned tolerance and poop-out with stimulants. I didn't have that trouble with Adderall. I started at 5mg/day and just stayed there. I felt mildy euphoric and had some insomnia the first few days, but that wore away rapidly and I just had focus-and that was it. It really wasn't mood elevating in any way. d-methylphenidate gave me zero mood elevation from the start-just an immediate focusing effect. Dexedrine was mildly mood-elevating, but didn't help me focus that well. They all make me a little too anxious. Do you think the stimulant is aggravating your cycling?
