Why not practice concentration i.e. meditating? Relax and focus on a dot on a blank wall, without your mind wandering, for as long as you can, without straining. Think: why should that be so hard? It's not like trekking to the Artic.

I read that a great many American are 'medicated', while few Europeans are. Sounds like a cultural thing.
 


That is so fucked up. In 5 years we will be reading about your long term issues with aderall that wont be discovered until then.

I just quit all alcohol, coke, and any sugar about 10 days ago. I crashed for 3 days and now I am on a constant energy spike all day. To each, his own.
 
Be careful, Jon! :eek: You neeeeeeed to take care of yourself better. No more "whoopsie, I almost OD'ed posts... Not cool! :(
 
does addreal help you concentrate it you dont have add? Im just really lazy. It would be nice if i could concentrate and work longer
 
blah. when i took adderall i became REALLY socially withdrawn. almost like i was high and sitting in the corner watching people would be enough stimulation to satisfy me.

taking too much ritalin makes me really anxious. ive had to start experimenting with lexapro because id burn myself out trying to (and 80% of the time successfully) tackling WAY too fucking much in one day. id then get angry and on edge with people.

i use the patch (daytrana). try that sometime :) crazy stuff.

i totally know what you mean about jackin yourself up on it and feelin great and having TONS of energy. for me, though, when i have tons of energy from alot of ritalin, socializing results in an annoying sugar/caffeine high personality rather than an elated, socially engaged personality. ill run circles around people in conversation and that pisses everyone off.

playing with the lexapro now to see how to get rid of those nasty social side effects, tho.

stims = good shit

I can't stay focused for longer than 20 minutes. I'll start browsing forums, watching videos, listening to music, go smoke, watch tv, or something else that wastes time.. And it isn't just work, it's everything. Even playing counter-strike lol.

dont think ritalin/adderall means youll be productive. you'll definitely be focused... but you might end up getting focused on procrastinating instead!

heh, procrastination on ADD medicine is a BITCH!
 
Heh heh, could you end up concentrating, really focusing on something that, when looked at soberly the next day, you needn't have done at all?

If it looks good when you're wide awake and sober the next morning, it's probably a good job.
 
I have serious problems concentrating on working online as well and it drives me crazy. I think it's becuase there's so many distractions when you're on a laptop, you can download and watch a tv show, dl porn and rub one out, listen to music and get engaged in it.. ahh its so frustrating.

it's a relief to go out outside and cut the lawns or monotonous, relaxing work oike that. mite check out this adderall, i assume you can buy it online?
 
If you take 15 minutes a day to meditate, you can have everything those pills bring you without the side effect (beside a little back pain for beginner)
