In reply to ADD and medications...what to expect, posted by the blue professor on March 30, 2003, at 1:06:04
I've tried all the stims. I thought plain old regular Ritalin was the best, with the least peaks and valleys. I didn't care for the Dexedrine at all. Just my results. You might want to try doing a task that usually is hard for you to do. Something that would test your concentration to see if the medication is helping. For me, I find I can type much faster and I get alot more done around the house (bill paying, etc.) when I take Ritalin. You might need to play with the dosage to see how much is right for you. Also, each stim made me feel very different mood wise, you might have to try a few different ones to see which one is right for you. Congrats on getting help and your lucky to have a supportive spouse. Good luck!
