I gave Ritalin a try, 10mg on Monday afternoon and I don't think I've ever been this calm and focused before. Amazing how much work can be done when you don't keep losing your pen or misreading phone numbers. Unfortunately it didn't last very long and I was told not to take any after 4pm.
So yesterday I tried 20mg (Pdoc told me to try different dosages, the max being 40mg a day and she guesses I'll need between 20 and 30mg a day) I think 20mg were too much as I felt my heart racing, and just felt physically unwell. Also after it wore off I was all hyped up until 6am...

Of course I've been really tired today. Fortunately work was very light. I only took 10mg, I was calmer than normal but I can't judge concentration due to only 3 hours of sleep.

I wrote all this in a diary and will continue to do so, this way my Pdoc has a way to really see how I react to the medication
