Hello guys!! I’ve been trying to take breaks from Concerta on weekends, but every time the weekend comes around, I end up telling myself I’ll try again next weekend.
I finally skipped it last Saturday, but I had zero motivation to do anyth…
Hello, can someone help me with the content of an ADHD diagnosis report? I asked the doctor for a report on the diagnosis, but he's taking a while; he needs to see a sample to get an idea. can anyone here can help ?
My relationship with math is so traumatic that it’s caused anxiety around anything related to math.
Also, I’ve yet to know of another adult who has this diagnosis or suffers with it
At my last appointment, the doctor prescribed Ritalin 10mg after lunch, alongside my morning Concerta 36mg. I felt that Ritalin 10mg is too strong, it made me overly stimulated, like when I tried Concerta 18mg as an afternoon booster, wheth…
I’ve been taking 36 mg of Concerta for a month now. My concentration, ability to get started and emotional regulation have improved, but the stream of thoughts hasn’t gone away. I’ve heard that people say, after taking medication, that it b…
I was on 50mg vyvanse after feeling a drop off in effectiveness on 30mg. However, 50mg made me hyperactive with crazy crashes in the evenings, so my doctor brought me back down to 30mg, with a 5mg/10mg dex as a booster in the afternoons.
I…
• Initial Phases (18 & 36 mg): Had a good start, but efficacy dropped over time. Led to overthinking, distraction, low motivation, and heightened sensory sensitivity (light/sound).
• The 54 mg Dose: Provided zero benefit. Caused severe anx…
Concerta gave me a lot of energy and motivation but made me extremely unstable and depressed after the effect wore off. Vyvanse gives me emotional stability, also working really well for my ADHD symptoms, but I miss the motivation to do thi…
I started taking Concerta for ADHD a few weeks ago. It has worked well, with only a decrease in appetite.
For the past week, I have developed mild headaches after taking it. I also look pale and seem generally unwell when they occur.…
Hello everyone,
I experience a specific phenomenon after socializing or being around people—even if it’s just one meeting a week. I lose my sense of self and identity; my inner voice gets drowned out by the voices of others, and my mind…
Hi everybody, I have been taking Vyvanse, Started at 30mg, but it wasn’t really working. Went up to 50mg, later 70mg. And I was anxious, tense and couldn't get any task done, so my doctor prescribed me Concerta, I started on 36mg and, then…

I took 36mg of Concerta around 8 am, an hour in I felt more clarity and less brain fog. I don’t feel terribly different except maybe calmer
I was also clearer and more articulate in conversations compared to the distracted thoughts that…
I'm on 60mg of vyvanse now, and it's going really well
It lasts about 8 hours, so I have the option of adding a dexedrine in the afternoon, like 5 mg or 10 mg
Curious what other experiences with a dexedrine booster ???
I started taking concerta when I was diagnosed with ADHD. I was on 36mg for about a year, and it worked for me pretty well. It helped me stay on top of full-time work.
Next year, I felt it wasn't working like before. Went up to 54 mg aft…
I have been on concerta 36 for more than a year now. I want to ask my doctor at my next appointment to add ritalin 10 mg to support me on heavy workdays after 5 pm, is it working for you?
Note: I tried to add Concerta 18 in the afternoon…
I have been on conerta 36 for a few months, and I feel that it is not enough for me to still focus and be motivated at work. I tried 54 for a week, but I can not tolerate it, I feel too stimulated and anxious
Anyone here stuck between 36 a…
I'm on 70mg of Vyvanse, and it works great for me.
When I tell someone that I’m on 70, they look at me like I’m crazy and ask why I’m on the max dose.
Anyone else on 70 mg?? I wanna feel not alone
I started 30mg yesterday and so far my experience is really positive. No bad side affects and I've got a titration appointment in a few weeks time to increase to 50mg. How do you know if you need to increase? Is it better to try 50mg?
As soon as my 60mg kicks in, I’ll usually have 1 cup of coffee, and honestly, it gives me an extra boost. I feel more stimulated, energetic, and even happier overall. Surprisingly, I don’t really get any side effects from the combo.
Anyo…
