Re: Concerta 1 year + now, Q with mixing.

Wow, it’s great to know someone shares a very similar story! This answered all my questions about my medication and why i felt like it was not working. I too have been on concerta for about a year and found the initial boost to be the motivation of my day. Now that “boost” has disappeared, I was concerned that the medication had stopped working. Of course, my pshy tricking me into believing exactly that. I too have good days and bad days but i always seem to blame the medication for me having this kind of distinction between my days. As far as exercise goes, its an absolute must for me. If i do not run at least a mile every day while on concerta, my evenings and nights are awful. I also have found myself wanting to be more isolated and alone more often and avoid anything or thought that could create a negative feeling. One challenge i face with this is once a negative provoking thought comes to mind or are likely to follow creating a sea of negative emotion and thoughts. I feel this might be directly correlated with me having to excerise every evening so i can combat that the negatives i have carried throughout the day. One question i have for you is if you have a similar experience? how do you combat negatives feelings? (if you have any that is). I am by no means a depressing person or depressed by the way.
