I am considering it.
In grade school back in the 80's, I started taking Ritalin in 4th grade. Until then, I was making F's and D's, and my grades shot up after that.
In the more recent past, I have tried Adderall first (couldn't tolerate the dry mouth), Straterra (caused too much anxiety), and Dexedrine Spansules, which ended up being perfect for me.
I'm in the process of moving and finding a new doctor. Unfortunately, I am finding out that Dexedrine is not an easily prescribed med - for a very good reason. I have done the weeks of exhaustive testing to be diagnosed for ADD a few years ago and I'd hate to go through it again.
That's the skinny on my situation. Sorry it got so long winded. Figured something less abuse-able is more easily prescribed.
