Oh. Sorry, I wasn't sure if you had used amphetamines or not. I would presume you'd be sensitive to ritalin then, too. Why not try the provigil? Some people have reported that it does help them with ADD- maybe you'd be one of them. Definately worth a try. But don't be a fool like me, thinking if some is a little helpful, some more will be more helpful. Only did that once!
I've also heard that selegeline/Emsam can help with ADD. I'm using Emsam, but it didn't help me with ADD stuff enough on its own, so I am using teeny amount of adderall with it. That's a really good combo for me.> For me amphetamines do. I was diagnosed with ADD at age 12 and have taken every one in the book. They worked fine until Social Anxiety came out of nowhere about 5 years ago, and any ADD med on the market really makes my anxiety bad. that's why i thought i'd ask. Doesn't seem like Provigil would do me as much good as I need though....I'm ridiculously distractable, and literally cannot do an essay etc. without something. (Currently Concerta works best, has least bad side effects)
