"i&#039;ve started taking concerta because of add when i was 21. i went to see my doctor, i was explaining to him that i had difficulty keeping up at school since i was a kid, but the only reason i&#039;m in university was because i was in art school. he prescribed me concerta. if anyone took speed before, it&#039;s exactly the same effect. you do get a down. you are more focused. you loose weight. however, you can go to sleep at night. the problem is, i don&#039;t take it everyday, i think it&#039;s a little bit too harsh for me. i&#039;ll go see him again, maybe i have psychological issues.
it did help with my sleeping: i always fell asleep in the afternoon, it took everything i had to stay awake ( at school, at home, at friends house) i was known as the sleeper."
