How right you are!So, last weekend we switched my son from Adderall XR to Concerta and I am extremely pleased with the difference.  He seems more himself, and less....well, medicated.  There is less rebound at night, and even my husband has seen a difference with time spent together after work/before bedtime.  I'm am a bit concerned about what I've heard is a "honeymoon" period.  Things start out great then turn no-so-great.  We had him on adderall for about 6 months, and although I never really thought it was perfect fit, it was the medication we tried and I was just so thankful to see the impulsivity lessen that I was hesitant to try anything else, KWIM?  So....it's been a full week, as of today, and I've not seen a decrease in effectiveness.  Anyone have an insight as to whether or not I can assume the best, or is it still to early?my advice, ENJOY it and dont question it when things are good, just take it .
