Yer i have taken Methylphenidate-generic Ritalin IR and found it initially stimulating, then calming-it worked well for about 1.5 years and sometimes helped sleep, then after some time on it, it started to cause anxiety, irritability. I lament the turn in effectiveness, as when it was focusing/calming i felt 'in the zone' where everything seemed to 'fit' and felt right, almost an Opiate like effect, Dex felt very different, smoother and less frontal lobe stimulation, sharpness.
