>Wow, you are stopping three drugs simultaneously and starting a different one? The Zyprexa and possibly the clonazepam could have been *causing* your concentration problems. Being able to concentrate doesn't imply you will be necessarily *content* :). I doubt if Ritalin would give you anything that will distract you much from your immediate tasks. Do you think it would be possible to just go med free for a while and see if your attention probs were med-induced before you try to fix something that may not have been broken w/o meds in the first place? Just some thoughts....
