Stephen, It sounds to me like Concerta might not be the best choice for you. I’ve been taking 18 mg Concerta twice a day for a number of years and I’ve had a very different experience with it than you’ve described. When I take it regularly, I am much more relaxed and easy-going and I’m more apt to be irritable when I do not take it. If anything, it helps me sleep rather than helping me wake up, but I was always extremely hyper before taking it. It’s made my life much more manageable and peaceful, as well as enabling me to be more productive and accomplish more. I’d recommend talking to your doctor about other choices.
