I started with Ritalin in elementary school, went to Concerta during high school, and went back to Ritalin during and after college.
I thought I was supposed to feel the medication being active, so when my body would adjust to my current dosage after a few months and I stopped feeling it I thought I needed to have the dosage upped again a few times. At a certain point, when on Concerta, I noticed it was causing problems for me and dropped my dosage down and stopped entirely for a few years.
Taking low dose Ritalin with a meal in the morning is the way to go so it slowly activates through the day, this has been sufficient for a while now for me. As by doing it this way I was able to get through college and it now helps me excel in the workplace. I hope this helps!
Bad UX made it hard for me to even make an account here lol, and I’m someone that has been promoting Lemmy for weeks. I think making the sign up process as easy as possible is how to do it. I’m still annoyed at how dumb it was trying to get on this site even.
Ritalin, lowest dose.
