PROS:
|
Quieted the noise in my head; enables me to embrace multi-step tasks
|
|
CONS:
|
None that I can recall
|
|
Began taking Concerta in 2007. I have been reinvigorated. I returned to college, and am currently working towards the degree abandoned 30 years ago. I am also writing multi-voiced music with harmonies and complex chord structures.
I can stay with a reading assignment.
My only challenge now is realizing that I can embark upon and complete a task. For most of my life, I have avoided multi-step tasks, because I knew I would eventually drop it.
Concerta is doing its job for me.

I take Concerta because when I'm depressed I can't do anything but sit. This helps me get going.

stimulant

I like concerta. It helps me focus and it helps shield my ADHD but if you take it too late in the morning, the stimulant effects will make it harder for you to fall asleep at night.

I took it 2 years ago. It did help me with my ADD but it increased my bipolarity. At the start of taking it, I weighed around 99 pounds. By the time my doctor took me off, I was 87. I was 4'9"
