Hey Racer, that's a low dose you are on. Are you finding it effective. Do you crash on it? Any side effects like you had with the Ritalin?

On my Long Day in classes, I've tried splitting that dose -- 5mg, 2.5mg, 2.5mg, but that's not great for my sleep. Next week, I'm going to try just separating my doses a little more. Take the second dose around 2PM, instead of 12, something like that. Right now, the second dose is fading about the time my late class instructor gets into swing.
