I take Ritalin, and it does help. Some people suggest taking periodic medication breaks with it, but I've also heard others saying it's not necessary. I guess it depends on the individual. I've taken some sort of stimulant for about a year and a bit, and it's made a big difference for me. Mostly, I don't feel anything I can say is a stimulant feeling, but I can tell when I'm not taking it. That tells me that it's working for me.

I hope that helps. Good luck with it.
