...speaking of add.
I was already being treated with ritalin and xanax on this job- but that was of limited help then. The reason is the dosages were not yet worked out properly, and because the ritalin made me obnoxiously Pollyana-ish and spurty at the start of the day, and then sort of blah as it wore off before next dose was due. The Polly-ana part, in particular, didn't really endure me to my jaded coworkers, who otherwise might have been allies... I think it didn't help that I often skipped breakfast in effort not to be late in the AM, and an empty stomache makes ritalin much more potent.
