Thanks for the response. It is almost like my Klonopin vs Xanax problem. Klonopin is sedating and depressing. Xanax is mild in terms of sedation and improves my mood. My doc actually suggested Concerta when I was complaining of fatigue, but I suggested Provigil, so we went with that. Haha, I need to be in less denial about my ADHD and start medication again.
Although Straterra didn't help with grades, I felt like I had 5 hours added to my day because I was just so much more efficient. My doctor wasn't concerned when I just decided to stop my Straterra, because he figures I'm smart and don't really need it. That's how I feel too, but I know I'm wrong. And am told so by friends.
It's kind of peaceful in a way. I find it slightly amusing that I get lost everywhere I drive, misplace everything I own on a daily basis, and have weird little quirks. However, it's not so much fun when I never have time to do anything productive. And the fact that when I do have time, studying just doesn't happen because I lack focus and am frustrated that I just can't seem to make full use of my abilities.
The majority of my time is spent wandering and being lost in my confused little world. The rest of my time is spent frantically trying to catch up!
