Larynxa, I’d be happy to help you out and play the part of the pirate if there is one. Arrrrrr. Thanks again for looking out for me. And just look at all these spaces.

I’ve been reading though other threads for hours and am finding your previous comment on one thing not working for all to be very true. I’m kind of stuck on the idea of staying of ritalin despite reading posts on how it should be banned.

The pros. — It lites a fire under my butt, I get a lot of stuff done when Im on them, I can juggle multiple projects at once, I don’t fall asleep during chuch services

The cons — I sometimes get edgy and snippy when they wear off, I feel lost when I forget them

I thought that the snippy thing was just a me thing but after reading around I see that its a problem for a lot of people. Has anyone found a trick to keeping upbeat when the medication wears off?

A beer or two?

A warm glass of milk (barf)

This is one of the reasons my wife didn’t really like me taking ritalin. I wasn’t a bear or anything, just not my usuall smooth sailing self. After six months without though, both of us are looking forward to me going back on them. Man did I ever get a whole lot of nothing accomplished this winter.
