Everyone reacts differently to medications. I think it’s normal for an adjustment to take a few days, but it shouldn’t make you feel BAD.
Concerta works great for me – but before I started taking it, I tried a number of other drugs, which I must say was not a pleasant experience. Ritalin made me feel like I had toxic syrup running through my veins – I felt slow and heavy, I had headaches, and everything seemed distorted in a sinister way. I don’t remember what all else I tried – a few different alternatives – but the experimentation phase truly was not enjoyable.
So, just to encourage you – hang in there. Maybe you’ll feel better on Concerta in a few days. If not, your doctor should be willing to work with you to find the right medication at the right dose.
