Unfortunately, the breaks have been non-existant. I guess you could say I'm sort of addicted to the feeling I don't need to nap all day and just feel all around crappy about myself. Maybe I should just bite the bullet and say Sunday is really a day of rest and sleep all day. I guess a small price to pay for 6 good days.I was on Ritalin first and found it to be very "ragged". Adderall seems much smoother.
God, I never thought I would be on Amphetemines! Am I just killing myself? :-)
