I've never taken a prescription stimulant and want something thats smooth. I know some stimulants can smooth you out and some do nothing but make you nervous and anxious. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

> Hey! XR formulations of stimulants are big because a) they make $$$ and b) they reduce the likelihood of abuse. Personally, I did Ritalin LA (like concerta, but supposed to be smoother). It was OK. Now I take Adderall XR in the morning, plain old adderall in the afternoon. I like it a lot more.
