Small mistake: Ritalin (Methylphenidate) is a stimulant but not an amphetamine.

Before Ritalin, that only came after my ADHD diagnosis, I couldn't focus on anything at all, literally anything. I was basically disabled, unproductive, I couldn't finish a single task, there is no way to explain how my life was before, it goes way beyond that. After Ritalin I could talk an entire sentence without getting overwhelmed by my thoughts. I could think "I need to shower" and take a shower. Do the dishes. Write a text. Do things. Actually do things, and finish them. Finishing things. I got my diagnosis in 2021 at 39 years old. Before, I was unemployed for most of my life. Now I have a job, I'm finishing University, it's like having a second chance to live. I could go on and on, to explain how much my entire life has improved and I'm only beginning to live my life now, at 40 years old. It's sad to look back and see an entire life wasted away, but I'm glad I'm in a better place now. I'm also autistic, diagnosed at the same time, but the ADHD diagnosis was the one that really changed my life.

I was hit with similar feelings. I got diagnosed in January ("ADD", so inattentive ADHD) and had decided to take my first pill on a day with no plans, cause I was nervous about how I'd react. I just sat there on the couch waiting, after 30 min I felt the calm in my body and my brain. It was like I could "take in the room" - I noticed details but it wasn't the bouncing from one impression to the next. I could sort of dwell on it a bit. I was still nervous thinking "Is this just placebo? Am I faking it? Has it even had time to kick in yet?" and continued to sit for another 30 min. And then I started crying.. For many reasons but most of all it was a relief. The calm was a relief. The focus and dwelling on details. The confirmation that my diagnosis was right. That my experience was real. The sadness or grief of all years of help I've missed. All the times I've been mean towards myself for being "lazy". And then I thought "No wonder I'm so mentally exhausted and tired all the time". All that energy spend in my brain bouncing around. We're slowly trying to find the right dose for me. At first I didn't find a big change in "motivation" or "organizing" tasks. So far fairly limited side effects like headache and lower appetite. But my partner notices when the meds stops working in the evening. He sees how I am getting easily distracted again, talking faster or incoherent speech/sentences and more "hyper". Especially when cooking dinner is about when it wears off. Cooking with that scattered brain makes it very obvious lol It was especially tough at first when I was only on a morning pill and had to take the train home from university as the effect was gone. So overwhelming to go from calm to a no-meds, restless brain and get a bunch of stimuli and impressions. I just went into a shut down, looking down at the floor and was grateful for my earplugs.

I can so relate to having tears in your eyes after the experience of just doing something you set out to do! ADHD is a serious condition and I'm glad there is medical help for it

Recently diagnosed with ADHD at 62. I totally understand what you mean by wondering what your life would have been like if you did not have ADHD. I am really afraid to start the medication but then I wondered what it would be like to think “like a normal person “. Thank you for sharing your experience. Good luck!

Thanks for making this! It was great to hear another person's perspective on ADHD meds

'The energy to start.' Exactly. Great video...going to turn on notifications bc I'm looking forward to an update.

Great insights. Thanks for sharing:) I’m 48 and have struggled with all of theses things and so many more my whole life. Simple tasks are always so hard. Have always beaten myself up for not getting important shit done. My son was recently diagnosed and through that I’ve come to see that I’ve got the “gift” to. Have an appointment for assessment etc in 1 months time. Counting down the days,mins hours. Seams like an eternity. You’re ahead of me slightly so will keep an eye on your progress. Hope to trade stories with you in future;)

I'm recently diagnosed at age 41. Haven't had the motivation yet to take steps toward medication, but that's my goal. I really look forward to the feeling you described.

I am watching your video as I take my first dose of Ritalin. Everything looks very clear in my head, no distraction...

I got diagnosed a couple of days and back and started the meds. Omg can't believe this is how NTs exist 24/7. And yes, I 100% relate to that what my life would have been without ADHD. You aren't alone ❤ and thanks a ton for the channel, makes me feel less lonely.

I just finished one month of that medication, 10mg, and similar results. For certain I had focus, more patience, and emotional balance, where I was not talking anything personally... I too cried, as I am 51, and had the chance to do this many times, once when it wan up to my parents, and they chose not to medicate me at 7, in 1978. If this is this same meds, I know I missed a different life, and cannot help but wonder how much easier it could have been. But I am satisfied, hopefully 2023 is a good year...

I am having my first experience with ritalin today. Specifically 10 mg ER methylphenidate. I found and started watching your video after about the 4 hour mark because I was experiencing the same drop that you did after a very similar successful morning of strong focus and motivation. Interesting how we had a very similar experience. I subbed to watch more :)

I'm diagnosed ADD and the Ritalin helps me tremendously, I feel so calm and focused. It also decreases my anxiety and depression.

This is the first time I ever seen one of your videos but I'm so happy for you!! I get the crying part, I have been on Ritalin since last May and I remember I crying too when I found out it was working. I was diagnosed with ADHD and some learning disalbilities when I was around 8 but, even with the right support, it has been hard! Ritalin has really helped me (not cured me unlickily :/), especially with university and I hope it can do the same thing for you! It feels nice to see that there are people out there going through similar things! A not required suggestion I can give you is: be mindfull of your eating!! I lost a lot of weight and apparently losing too much weight in a short amount of time is not good for you health... who knew! Anyways, I wish you the best! Have a nice day :)

My first day on meds: picking up a sock that's been laying around für weeks (5 second task - weeks of shame passing and seeing it) and acutally cleaning up the whole kitchen within 2hours. You know, almost without that runnning around starting different things in different rooms kinda thing.

You have given me hope for my son ❤

Looking forward to the update, found this very informative!

Am starting my meds from ADHD. This video makes me excited ! Can't wait

1:40/2:05 and 4:41were deep for me. Suddenly being able to do the bike task (and taxes, etc.) because of the meds is such a good illustration of how real and life-alteringly HARD having ADHD is. I wish I could infuse that knowledge into all the disbelieving doctors, bosses, teachers, etc. who choose not to believe this is a real disability. And I'm going to try to remember it myself. I KNOW I have ADHD, yet after a lifetime of internalized shame, I still frequently fall into self-blame for not being able to just DO things like other people. ❤Thank you for this. ❤

Great video, I hope you continue making more :)

I got diagnosed with adhd this year and also got medicated with ritalin and it was a miracle for me, still is. I can do whatever I put my mind to and I can also process whatever I want and it’s much easier to plan, execute and contemplate. Now I understand what part of me is because of ADHD and what part is me unshackled from adhd. I don’t feel any emotional stunting either, just greater control over them meaning that I still feel a great range of emotions like most adhd people, but I can control and process them much much easier now. It’s like I’m starting a new life and I could not be happier :3

so helpful! im starting ritalin in a month. got diagnosed at 24 and I too have that (in my case, sad) thought of "what would my live be if i had gotten diagnosed early". But anyways, finding accounts like yours is helpfull!

Really good information Brother!

Thank you for the video! It helped me a lot. I just got diagnosed with ADHD, and was so afraid of how I would feel after taking Ritalin!

I felt so happy watching this, need more such videos. BTW what amount ritalin did you take?

I started as an adult as well and had those thoughts of what would my whole life have been like if I had this as a child. Probably would have had a whole different and more positive life experience. Thanks for video :)

This is a great Podcast that explains ADHD medications...he talks a lot about other ADHD/ASD symptoms as well. I love it! It was helpful for me at least. It's very informative! ***The Podcast is ADDitude Magazine Podcast #356 The missed diagnosis ADHD and Autism in smart kids and adults. It is GREAT!!! It's Thomas E. Brown Ph.D and he explains it really well. The ADHD part and meds starts around 35:00. I hope it helps!

your video made me emotional. got my diagnosis (add) today, so i guess i’ll be trying meds soon (after a long life of failure)

Like most ADHD i have beaten my self up for not doing all the things i could and should do. About what what you said if you were diagnosed before. I tink Self-respect is imperative. And regrets are poison for the mind! Good luck on your journey

Cool vid! Just one detail that might be of interest to others who take ADHD medication: Ritalin is a re-uptake inhibitor (not amphetamine). It does not increase the dopamine production, rather it reduces how much dopamine is returned while transported between neurons (in the synapse). Dopamine is sent back and forth, but more in one direction, eventually out to the rest of the brain. Amphetamines on the other hand, increase the fundamental dopamine production, while the re-uptake is not altered. Re-uptake inhibitors is an ingenious chemical alteration in the brain, that seems to not burn-out neurons, and be safer than amphetamines.

For me, it made wonders, didn't make me anxious like coffee and helped me stay focus and productive

I stubble thinking about how whatever would of helped me back then. New insight is to help you going forward,not kick the legs out that got you here. I dealt with ADHD for 64 years,only it just went by my name then,and all i know is how I did it. I didn’t have another person to be,and I’ve learned to live without. When I can’t be me,I’ve learn to give it a minute ,for my world to turn around again to it.

Helped a lot. Thank you for sharing 😀

So valid, I will take my pill soon-- excited !! Lowkey only valid video on KZfaq 💪🏽 💪🏽 Hella straight to point!! All other videos people waffle too much 😅

Great video! On your last point regarding how things would have been different starting meds at a younger age, imagine you're 55 and discovering this. I stumbled across a video 3 years ago and this guy explaining how he wasted away every morning doing nothing constructive, just avoiding tasks. That was me and I decided to give the meds a try. I always knew I was ADHD somewhat but I didn't realize how much it effected me. I was prescribed Vyvance. Vyvance is slower reacting and lasts about 12 hours although it wanes after 8 hrs or so. There isn't much of a "crash" and works the same. It's a great medication. It's a problem if taken late as you can't turn it off. Sometimes I find I do not want the "help" for 12 hours. I'm pretty sure they both have the same affect. The biggest issue is that over time it works less and less, you have to take more and more. I do my best to not take it for 3 or 4 months of the year, when I need it the least and it works much better starting up again and I can keep the dosage the same and it works better. Thanks to you're video I will ask my doc if he can prescribe me both meds. That way if I want to get stuff done say in the evening I know I will sleep well after 4 hours. I experienced the same effects as you and the first summer I took it I got more done than I had gotten done in years, and its not because I didn't have things to do. Like many ADHD people I have 1000 things to do. The most memorable thing when I first started was I remember actually thinking and concentrating about walking up the stairs. I never ever did that. I would be thinking of 10 other things. I noticed I didn't stumble anymore and I wasn't banging into stuff etc. because when I moved around I thought about moving around. Not sure if that makes sense. If someone was to ask me how to describe the feelings, I would say it enhances all emotions. Whatever you like you like more, whatever you hate you hate more. Naturally if you like things that are bad for you....probably not a good thing. I get easily frustrated when things begin to fail and I get terribly mad when things fail on the meds. It was better at the beginning when it worked better. I will be looking forward to you're next video. Cheers.

0:57 Ritalin is not an amphetamine, it is methylphenidate. The prototypical explanation to distinguish the two is that amphetamine releases dopamine and inhibits its reuptake, whereas methylphenidate only inhibits reuptake. It gets much more nuanced when you look further into it though. Clinically, amphetamine increases dopamine levels much more potently than methylphenidate but the two can be titrated to produce similar behavioural effects at lower doses.

What milligram dose of ritalin were you prescribed? I just started taking 10mg long acting methylphenidate and I can barely notice a difference.

I opted for Adderall XR so it lasts for around 10-12hrs before the effects wear off and also eating and drinking water is important stimulants have your body use more water than usual

I believe I struggled with ADHD my entire life, I mean every inattentive function and execution function I had troubles with. Im 42 now and I finally found out by researching and getting in my life where I feel that I’m not progressing as much and I lose focus easily. My entire life I wondered why I can’t focus for long on anything and my thoughts are all over the place thinking about a 1000 things at the same time and not seeing what important. I have an appointment soon to get full diagnosis and I can’t wait until I get treated. Just because I’m super ambitious I pushed though my whole liked struggling with every aspect in my life. I hope my next stage in life will make a huge difference in my life.

2:06 ahhh yes , that moment when you struggle with something for 2 hours if not more but in reality it only needed 5 mins max. good ol' adhd 😂

Thank you for sharing! I just started taking Medikinet 10mg. I don't really notice anything physical or the kick in the beginning you described. I'll try upping the dosage but I'm in a weird spot because I haven't found a psychiatrist yet. Got my prescription from a general practicioner.

Hi! I have very similar issues to you. And it is extremely recognizable. All the things that I thought were idiosyncratic, things that made people give me horrible negative feedback all the time, you have got them all. We can only do so much. That's why I also avoid many 'friends' and 'groups', because I am too sensitive to social cues, but I know I cannot adapt to it anyways. So I am considering Ritalin as well.

As a parent researching the real-world affects of using meth-micro-doses for a child of mine, thank you for the video and the look into both positives and negatives.

Got diagnosed yesterday and i’m gonna try my first 5mg pill of Ritalin tomorrow. Hope it goes well

when i take ritalin i get really bad stomach aches and it takes hours for me to fall asleep

Hello, Thanks for sharing. This video is very informative. Did you have any other side effects of it ? other than the headache and mood crash? and what did you do to combat against those? I just got prescribed the same as what you are using do you have any advice on taking it for the first time?

Hello, I'm a 26-year-old man who was recently diagnosed with ADHD. Last week, I got blood samples done. My first medication will be delivered to me in the coming weeks. I would like to follow your journey and would also appreciate getting advice about living with medication.

Im going to start next week so thus video helps. ❤

Hi,as for me, it is the contrary : I slow down when taking Ritalin, as if I smoked a joint. I feel much less anxious too. Is it normal or does it mean that I actually don t have ADHD?

Is taking Ritalin once a morning enough to treat attention deficit and is it addictive?

I feel you bro

Hi, thanks for the share! Sorry to be pedantic but Ritalin is not an amphetamine, rather methylphenidate. "Both amphetamine and methylphenidate are predominantly dopaminergic drugs, yet their mechanisms of action are distinct. Methylphenidate acts as a norepinephrine-dopamine reuptake inhibitor, while amphetamine is both a releasing agent and reuptake inhibitor of dopamine and norepinephrine." I use Concerta, also methylphenidate, and am very happy with results. Cheers!

Hei thank you for sharing your journey, have you tried Adderall? which one do you think works best for focus, Adderall or Ritalin?

Started my first dose yesterday. Felt a bit euphoric and high for a while. Pretty OK mood. Today however I have suffered with aweful headaches and a mood crash. I was expecting some adjustment period though as I have never taken meds for my ADHD before. Today I have felt weirdly emotional and exhausted but I think my body is just trying to get used to the drug. I am to take one a day for 7 days. Then 2 a day for 7 days. Then 3 a day for 7 days and see how I get on.

How was your sleep, anxiety, overthinking? and is it safe to want a medication that lasts all day long like 6 to 8 hours long?

I have fibromyalgia, a neurological disorder, one of the symptoms is lack of concentration and other cognities difficulties that mimic adhd. I always wonder if adhd treatment would help

I took Focalin for the first time (like 20 years ago) and I felt so spacey I actually hit the corner of my garage door with my car. Ultimately it was just too high a dosage. Any brain chemistry meds you take, you should definitely allow some time, maybe even ad much a# a year or two, to zero in on the right meds and dosages for you. I eventually ended up on the slow-release variant because I had to do dinner/parenting rush right when the original medication started to wear off. All these years later, I cam still completely tell if I’ve missed a dose. I did struggle with nausea of a long time. At first I had to manage it by being careful to take it with a relatively high-protein mini meal, or I would get nauseous at around 11 a.m. Eventually my body acclimated though and while I’m still careful not to take it on an empty stomach, all the side effects are substantially less, while the benefits ar3 still more or less the same.

You sound like you have a German accent (or anything from a country close to it) - if you ARE German, could you explain the way to go about getting a diagnosis? I'm so confused, do I contact my Hausarzt, what do I tell them to believe me that I actually need help and am not imagining it, do I go to a therapist, psychiatrist directly...?

did you feel burned out after taking for 7 days straight ?

I´ll swallow my first pill tomorrow morning... 😬Kind of excited, after seeing your video. 41 here, just got the diagnostic (after 1 1/2 year talking with the psychiatrist). Let´s see!

I started taking Ritalin for my ADHD about a month ago, at the age of 35. Honestly so far I feel like I have a new brain 🧠 it's incredible so far, long may it last. Luckily I don't get any crashes so far 🤞🏻

I couldn't get ritalin prescribed despite asking my doctor. Is it just luck you get the right medication you want or whomever your doctor is a salesperson for?

How does it compare to wellbutrin?

What dosage were you on?

Hi! Yes, I would like to connect with you also, about adhd. Recently received the diagnosis, I'm over 30 and starting to take pills also to see if it helps more than not taking them.

All is great for the first 6-8 months, then the tolerance increases and so does the dependency (both physically and productively).

thank you! 4r

HELLO!!! So hey I didnt realize I had ADHD at all in my life like ever until I attended college. I knew I was a little crazy in high school and had a few phases of deep depression but also had anxiety was super emotionally intelligent and craved DEEP connections with other people. I attended uni and noticed I needed to move like a motor and the long hours of homework made me feel exhausted and depresses like my first and second semesters. I noticed my homework took a lot longer compared to my classmates, university is nothing like high school I took easy classes in high school only 2 AP classes, the rest regular classes (USA school system). Anyways, I also really got into art in college because I am class of 2020 high school and did a ton of art to cope during quarantine and noticed I talked a lot more than other people around me. I am a psychology, philosophy, modern day hippie listening to indie/alt rock kind of gal. I am also at university majoring in not the easiest major, construction management. I have had other phases of depression. My sister thought I was autistic lol because I endlessly talk, need a long like 1 hour jog daily to get my energy out, have a ton of emotions, love art, and I am super quirky like I love weird raw squid to eat. That made my sensitive self so sad that she thought that but then I thought, hey maybe I am different. Which I have always been a unique character but I'm like hey I support neurodivergency and I could be one. I started researching neurodivergeny and came across adhd, I talked about it with my therapist who her husband has ADHD and shes like you totally have ADHD. I said I really agree with a lot of these symptoms. I then went to another therapist who talked with me and gave me help and support for what I needed at the time but he said his cousin also had ADHD and he said I totally had ADHD but he's like your creativity, curiosity, intelligence socially academic and emotionally will make you through your life it'll be great (I was still depressed during this time lol) Then I visited a Sacramento California psychiatrist and tried bringing up adhd, he recommended zoloft for my depression/anxiety which is what the other psychiatrists and therapists recommended but he used super old outdated information and he was an old guy, we wasted $2000. Then my mom was like you don't have ADHD because that man has been to school (he has a 5 star rating on his website for whatever reason) plus my mom doesn't know what adhd is she just makes fun of it and doesn't really try to understand or learn about it herself and she doesn't understand mental health at all she is not very in touch with herself (she is, but not like me). So then FINALLY I attend university and I go to the counseling center and they of course recommend zoloft and concerta. I start with 50 mg of zoloft daily and it super helps but Its still not perfect I then take 100 mg of zoloft daily and its fantastic $1-$5 for a month supply and I literally have no depression and anxiety, no ANTS, no intrusive thoughts, no suicidal/self harming thoughts, no low mood, no anxiety so bad like I get frantic walking into the room or have to escape. My mind is a LOT CALMER and I am so much naturally happier and less stressed, then they put me on concerta. CONCERTA 18 MG A DAY HAS CHANGED MY LIFE. My grades in school got so much better overnight, I am so much more motivated, I can sit down an read a book without fidgeting and squirming so much, I have the motivation to listen to audio books and podcasts which I tried to do before but it was exhausting and I would miss 1/3rd of the info so I would just put on music, I don't have to run 5-7 miles a day to get my energy out, I finish my homework a lot faster, I lose things less, I am less impulsive with eating and spending habits, I am on time to things, I am not as distracted. ANYWAYS I as a women did not get treated or the proper help and medication I needed until 21 years old. I am so glad I have been on this crazy incredible journey because I will probably be on zoloft and concerta the rest of my life. My brain lacks seratonin, well has less than usual because before zoloft I tried therapy, diet and exercise I would try EVERYTHING and I was still struggling with depression so antidepressants have been a truly positive experience for me, I know that they arent for everyone, but they certainly worked in my experience. I did not realize I have adhd until college though, especially because growing up I would be in a lot of sports and have huge mood swings but I got great grades in school. I didn't realize how much I needed more like a motor than everyone else until university because I do have the combined type but I have more of the hyperactive, I have energy for days and I can run off of very little sleep. Anyways, I am a character and that's all what I wanted to say. I loved this video the medication kicks in and you want to learn and do everything. I am so happy because the medication gives me the opportunity to focus and learn about everything that I want to learn about.

i went to a psychiatrist and he gave me laroxyil and some other drug he said i should try em for like 2 months but iam afraid to get addicted ..! idk wether i should really try only the antidepressant or what ..

I was prescribed 110mg per day of Ritalin for about 5 years, I'd take 2 x 10mg tabs every hour and a half all day everyday, and I'd also drink 3 or 4 coffees a day as well as 3 or 4 big cans of energy drinks. The problem for me with Ritalin is the very short half life, 2 hours after taking a dose I'm feeling all come down and strung out pretty much hanging out for more ritalin. After 5 years on them I realised I was no better off than I was in the years prior to being prescribed ritalin when I was a meth addict self medicating my ADD, so I weaned myself off the ritalin and went through a nasty anxiety filled withdrawal similar to meth withdrawals, I now live a clean drug and meds free life and deal with my ADD and anxiety using exercise, diet, and lifestyle.

Did you try the extended release form , co ncerta ,

If you haven’t yet you should DEFINITELY what and study Dr Barkley’s video on 30 essential ideas you need to know about ADHD! Got diagnosed a year ago and found out I grew up with ODD and CD! Adderall has changed my life🎉

First day today uff the first hour was so strange I felt like on drugs then focus focus and calmness no voices in my head nothing 🤯 then no hunger, dizziness and headache AF. At the end of the day I was so tired and like mind and body were disconnected that’s was creepy. I hope tomorrow gets better

Hi, I have a box of Medikinet that I haven’t tried, as the neurologist wasn’t 100% sure that It‘s ADHD. He basically said to try Ritalin (=Medikinet) and see what happens. In his opinion, anything resembling a „high“ is probably an indication that ADHD was the wrong diagnosis. Also the adult version (which yours is) should be slow releasing. My partner and I have experience with party amphetamines back in the nineties, and in her case they genuinely calmed her down, which is basically what my neurologist says should happen

Getting ready to start mine tomorrow at the age of 53 it took me 1 year to get diagnosed by the doctor even with me telling him 1 year prior that i believe i have ADHD

Loved the benefit of ritalin but the side effects were worse, now im on adderal and i dont get any effects at all beside the benefits and a dry mouth with a little bit anxiety from time to time.

The sugar in your coffee is wreaking havoc with the adhd. And the caffeine in the coffee makes us sleepy not energized so taking anything for adhd and coffee combined have a counteracting effect.

thanks for your video! i‘ve just learned a lot about my boyfriend‘s adhd :)

4th day on Ritalin I feel u

OMG. I started it a week ago, and my anxiety is killing me

So you were tweaking ??

I felt the same way that you did on ritalin after drinking great value dragon fruit energy drink. it was better than red bull! its a powder pack

Ritalin is not an amphetamine although it is a substituted phenethylamine and phenidate

He's so handsome omg

Not an amphetimine but stimulant

Do you play battlefield?

Hi ! Mg dose?

Must be on slow release

Shifting from Concerta to Ritalin. *fingers crossed*

احتاج ترجمه

My first 3 days on Ritalin aren't anything to talk about. Guess it's not working.

It worked gloriously. Then it stopped working. Now i am worse off than i was before i had it. Starring down the barrel of parkinsons. Super low dopamine.

I am on Elvanse Adult and I am still not 100% sure it is right for me, but like you I knew really quickly that I definitely do have ADHD especially when it just felt like the clouds in my mind were blown away. It is a long road and I have been on it for a while. I think I initiated the diagnosis process in Feb-2020 just before the lockdown and didn't get a formal diagnosis until Sept-2022. After that getting medication in Germany was so difficult and then once I started it at the end of Oct-2022 it was mind boggling. Still doing the dosage adjustments but I am hopeful things will improve in the coming months.

Thanks for your video. I've been prescribed Vyvanse, but I don't trust the doctor AT ALL. Especially after speaking to people who took it and researching a bit. I would love to find people who have been taking some ADHD medication for a long period of time, other than Vyvanse, to see how it affects them long term, if they still think it's worth it taking it.

That toxic thought is somewhat sad but you're stil young and can achive many things :)

Only headaches when you forget to hydrate... Zip some water from time to time, perfect

i wonder how many misdiagnosed and priscibed ppl damaged by drs .. i know because it happended to me ..

its remarkable how the therapy industry has managed to normalise the DSM mindset and the drugs that follow - such a weird time - people ought to read around these subjects to understand the history and massive controversies and unscientific and corrupted nature of it all - its truly frightening that people aren't aware of this and the power of marketing and advertising along with appeals to self interest in the form of scraps from the table has created such a profound net harm for human wellbeing - this book is a good place to start Adhd Is Not An Illness And Ritalin Is Not A Cure: A Comprehensive Rebuttal Of The (alleged) Scientific Consensus by Dr Yaakov Ophir

I started with 10 mg, irritability and agression😢, started today, i will just give it timeang suggestions?
