I was prescribed Ritalin, Concerta and Adderall at various points of my life to treat “ADHD“ and I have to tell you my experience was horrific! I believe it cause psychosis and paranoia and depression. Also a family member of mine was taking my meds when I was not in school and as a result has been hooked on the drug for 30+ years. I have to say it’s very troubling how smiley you are talking about this horrible horrible drug! So you’re going to increase the dosage until the symptoms are adequately under control? So do you believe that the symptoms are equivalent to the diagnosis? If so you should be really ashamed of yourself! The pharmaceutical industry is not seeking to help patients they are seeking to acquire more customers for life! It is ridiculously addictive. Look at the Opiate epidemic in our country! I’m sure doctors like you were smiling telling people it would help them with their pain and alleviate their symptoms all the while getting them to become Addicts for the rest of their life!
@@jonathanstell9732 sorry about your negative experience, but much of the rest of what you said is so so detached from reality, bordering on conspiracy theory territory
@@jonathanstell9732 then you were prescribed the wrong drug on accident prob, I'm on Ritalin right now, first off you can not get depression, second off you do not get hooked (not addicting) and lastly there always will be side effects to a drug that actually works!
I'm very happy that on ritalin the only thing I experienced was appetite loss, it made me much calmer than I usually am and significantly less stressed and anxious. For me it was a silver bullet to the struggle of just *doing* and I'm super happy about it.
I just got out on methylphenidate er concerta. I got put on 18mg. The next month went to 36 and it didn’t last as long. So my doctor put me on 10mg at 4pm about 6 hours after my first dose and it has helped amazingly.
A girl had trouble focusing had work. Told her to go to a doctor. Gave her 1 pill after 10 minutes she work better than the worker. She listened to me and went to a doctor
I am on the extended release version, but even that lasts me roughly around 5, sometimes 6 hours. Instead of having a booster dose later, I was prescribed the extended release both morning and afternoon. It works wonders! I only experience mild sideffects when the medication gradually stops working. Other than that, my body takes it pretty well
I switched from 18mg of Concerta twice a day to 5mg of Ritalin twice a day. The crash I feel on Ritalin is horrible. It’s fall asleep sitting up crash. I felt the Concerta but it was so much smoother. The Ritalin also makes me a jerk and easily angered, but unable to let go. The Concerta made it super easy to transition in tasks and emotions. The Ritalin makes it so I can’t transition in work or emotions. It was far easier to be happy on Concerta. I meet with my doctor tomorrow morning before work. I just hope I can go back to Concerta and maybe increase my dose a little bit. 🙏
The first prescription I was allowed to try for my ADHD from my provider was Wellbutrin and I couldn't feel anything from it. Tried up to six or seven or eight at a time and felt a slight increase in energy but only slight. Yeah I guess for my body it doesn't react with it whatsoever.
I felt great on Wellbutrin but man, it really made me so angry! Literally so angry and over nothing. I now got switched to methylphenidate and I’ll be starting that!
hey can I ask how things are now? someone I love is on Ritalin and has like completely changed I’m so worried they won’t go back to their usual selves have things gone back to normal for you?

So I went to see a PD and she prescribed me Ritalin and told me to start from 25 mg a day (5-5-5-10) and then add 15 more milligrams each day until I reach 70 milligrams a day (day 4). So as I started taking my meds like that I almost instantly lost my appetite, had trouble to fall asleep then it was worse, I had anxiety attack (never had one before). After seeing my PD once again in 14 days, we agreed I will do another try because I was in stress from my work and that could be the problem. So yeah, today I reached 60 milligrams, had depression, dark thoughts and some other things. Tachycardia, my asthma kicked in... Not sure if Ritalin is the right choice for me, becase I've never felt so close to losing my mind. I want to try something non-stimulant based so let's see.
I was just prescribed methylphenidate tablet. One 18mg/per day. 52 yrs old male. I haven't noticed anything. I did just start. In week 3, so not sure if I should reach out to my doctor to see if that is normal or if you need to increase.
If it treats obesity then why did I gain weight on it? Determining the dose of the long acting one is a bit more involved than using your daily dose as you don't know in advance how long it will work. It also doesn't always work all that evenly. In my body the initial dose would be too big and then the slow acting bit would be insufficient and stop working too fast.
I'm 61 and I had add when I was a kid which became bipolar disorder later on. I still wish I had something that could help me focus. I'm not sure I could take ritalin again without it spiking my blood pressure as well.
I still have scars from where I broke out uncontrollably as a child. My teeth are bad land I quit growing after I was drugged as a child. I keep my mother at arm’s length because she drugged me with legal meth.
I doctor give me bupropion300 amoxotine 10 naltraxon 25 with propanol 40 nd clonazepam.5 form last 25 days but still I see my symptoms becomes worst last tym my doctor give me methylphenidate 10 nd increase to 15 but now my doctor switch above meds can you suggest some

I have been on Ritalin (40mg) since I was a kid, but I stopped about 7 years ago. Recently, I tried taking it again to see how it would affect me. While it helped with concentration, it came at the cost of my emotions. Everything felt gray and dull; nothing was boring, but nothing was funny either. Essentially, I felt like a robot with no emotions.
@@hermeameoshiit has very mild effects. I feel slightly more awake, somewhat more motivated, find it a bit easier to focus on stuff. Like a stronger form of caffeine.
God gives us just enough to handle and not anymore. Because God knows that we are strong and we can accomplish the goal where God got his eyes on us. Because God gives us freewill,we can do anything right; but sometime we take on more than what we can handle. So Just take one step and at a time no matter what.

what exactly do you think "handling" something is, because in my mind, once you are wishing you are not here anymore or suffering from something that will lead to death, that is too much to handle, people cant handle that. that happens to humans everyday, people die from more than they can handle, and god causes them to die or calls them home or whatever you believe, so you must think that any human experience of suffering including death, is not more than they can handle? this is so invalidating to people who are stuck trying to keep themselves together, it implies that even if youre not handling things so badly youre DYING, that god still thinks you could handle more. we dont have free will to change our bodies or our brains that god gave us. a lot of times it is our brains or our bodies that cause us suffering and our deaths. its okay to say we cant handle some things that god dishes out, we cant understand god in the way you pretend to here, and this is the thing. Even if god does give us more than we can handle, suffering is temporary, and our souls are forever, the eternal I am will always be, even after our bodies and brains are not. thats where faith comes in, dont have faith god wont give you more than you can handle. have faith that god will be there when what god has given you inevitably becomes too much to handle. such is life.

Your dose sounds too high for someone starting
@@juanfernandez667 It was. Now I got only 100 mg of Atomoxetine.
My psych started me at 5mg. Yours sounds way too high.
No way i was in Ritalin LA for 3 years and it always lasts Atleast 12 hours if u Google ritalin it says it could last up to 14 hours
What mg were you takin? Just googled at it says 4 to 6 hours and that is my experience with 10mg, it lasts me up to 6 hours which is short
I was just prescribed methylphenidate tablet. One 18mg/per day.
52 yrs old male.
I haven't noticed anything. I did just start. In week 3, so not sure if I should reach out to my doctor to see if that is normal or if you need to increase.
Does it increases risk of heart attack or has adverse effects on heart
Can the rash i get on my calves be because histamine release
My doctor gives it to me for anxiety and depression Concerta
