I had to look this one up:
avolition:
An inability to initiate and persist in goal-directed activities. When severe enough to be considered pathological, avolition is pervasive and prevents the person from completing many different types of activities (e.g., work, intellectual pursuits, self-care)but I'm shocked... I thought that was exactly what ADD meds(stimulents) were supposed to PREVENT??
rebound? poop-out?
thanks,
