Hope I at the right place I been googling and researching lots of info.

I am 21 years old and currently junior in college.
so, I started doing bad in test midterm. I am very calm guy and pay attention class very well take excellent notes and everything.
So very frustrated and i saw a college therapist she said I might have ADHD and so she recommand to see a doctor.

And so I saw a psychiatry this was actually problem for very long time I just did not bother seeing a doctor and taking drugs. because i was doing good last quater my gpa was 3.5 .so long story short he has prescribed me a 10mg twice a day Amphetamine

its been over week now and ya I am able to focus lot better and study. I just want to know if that medication he gave me is ok and going to work . I just want to know if anyone is taking this and how do you feel before and after
can get some perspective

Thanks!

i have been on/off ritalin (amphetamine-type drug)..only time will tell if this will continue to work well for you..hopefully your pharmacist gave you printed sheet of characteristics of the medication, if NOT, the drug library here has one...suggest you read it and familiarize yourself with side-effects etc..there are many drugs to help ADHD, all a bit different depending on the individuals needs...its up to YOU to record or remember instances of y our life on this med and whether it for you, or time to try another.....
