Hi everyone, Years ago I was on a Ritalin generic, and it ended up just being like strapping a jet engine to a bicycle: couldn’t focus at all.

And now I’m trying it again, but I’m on Concerta. Was on a starter dose, didn’t feel anything, now I’m on double that dose from today, waiting to see if I can feel anything.

How do you know if it’s working?

    Or vyvanse. I switch to vyvanse from adderall and it’s been life changing. Adderall worked and was fine, but caused a lot of anxiety.

      Vyvance is dextroamphetamine with a lysine molecule stuck on to require stomach/liver activation, to lower the abuse potential. All the side effects of amphetamines are that pesky levo isomer, Dex is way better, for everything imo
