I started Adderal about 2 months ago, after working through dosage and some side effects ive settled in and see a great improvement. only one side effect i cant kick, i have a habit of chewing on my toungue which my pdoc said was a motor tic. i can live with it but wonder if Ritalin might make a difference in anxiety level? i do need to add that i have recently gone thru a job change that requires me to be up at 4:00 am and work long days, having said that i dont mind the other "side" effects from Adderal that i get. they are not huge but i seem to be able to wakeup without much problem after my 1st dose in the morning. i guess im asking, is Ritalin a stimulant? as a recovering alcoholic i know i have an addictive disorder but in no way feel i need Adderal to function during the day for energy but that as a side effect i can live with it. i hope you have followed my rambling, i guess what im asking is in anoyones opinion will ritalin help this motor tic and reduce the stimulation that i recieve from adderal while helping with my many add problems like Adderal has?
