> Thanks to everyone who has posted. Now that I've been on Ritalin for several days I find that the euphoria has subsided and I'm just a lot more focused. Partly, too, my euphoria was the result of a "Hey, this stuff really works!" kind of reaction. I've found that I don't need the maximum daily dose of 15 mg, I just take 5 in the morning and five in the mid-afternoon, since I like to work in the evenings. It hasn't seemed to mess up my sleep, which was a major worry. This seems to be the way to go at this point, though I may look into dropping my Cymbalta back to 60 from the current 90 after I'm sure about the way things are going.

> Lou, thanks for your concern, but I'm honestly not interested in another video about how awful psychoactive drugs are. I've done a lot of research and I know the risks. Everything has risks, but the decisions I'm making are informed decisions & made in consultation with four different medical practitioners working in consultation with each other and with me. One of these docs I've been seeing for 20 years & I have more than once trusted him with my life. I understand your point of view, but with all due respect I am just not interested.cj,
You wrote,[...Lou, thanks...I'm..not interested...I understand your point of view...].
I have no kick against you taking pills, as long as I can post about potential ills. The drugs have many adverse effects, that I would like for others to do some checks.
So I like to post what could be of interest, for those that want to choose it, the vids can be life-saving, for those that do not want to loose it.
