Hi everyone, Years ago I was on a Ritalin generic, and it ended up just being like strapping a jet engine to a bicycle: couldn't focus at all.

And now I'm trying it again, but I'm on Concerta. Was on a starter dose, didn't feel anything, now I'm on double that dose from today, waiting to see if I can feel anything.

How do you know if it's working?

You gotta give it a few days. Every time I’m off meds for more than a couple weeks, it take a few days before I really start to hit my stride again.
