My Dr gave me the 5Mg Ritalin on a trial basis. He told me to take the first pill when I got up and the next one four hours later. Three days later on the folow up visit he asked me relate my experience. I could start to feel the medicine start to act about 30-45 minutes after taking it. The lights were on and I began to notice all the articles around me.–I would call it Spacial Awareness. If I needed an object I could go straight to it. I also knew where an object should not be….
I took the second pill 4 hours later… I can feel the energy and the awareness improve.. four hours later back to the old me trying to rush the project and can’t rememer where I left objects.
I might be wrong and if so someone please comment. There are two major parts to fix the ADD. The first is the DIAGNOSIS..The DR gave me the medicine. The second part is just as dificult as the first one, PROPER DOSSAGE. There are many perscriptions..some generics.Basically the same active ingredient but different delivery systems and dosage. It might take time for the Dr to find what works best for you. As you read thru the comments/Forum you become aware of the one size does not fit all. Work with the DR tell him what takes place and when as you try the medicine. This will aid him help him and you reach your goal.
Thank God for my wife and DR. My anxieties/wories are no longer crippling me.
Don’t give up THE LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL IS BRILLIANT
Good luck on your journey
