What does it feel when on Ritalin? | ADHD Information
How do you feel when you take a Ritalin or a type of medication like Ritalin? Can you remember the different ages or stages of your life and how you felt? I'm interested for a 13 year boy diagonosed since 6 years old. I appreciate any feedback.I just started taking it. For the first time in my life I didnt have a cacophony of competing thoughts interfering with my ability to focus on what I am doing. I dont mean crazy thoughts just normal, what will i do next, thoughts of my last date, remembering for a second a forgotten task, a bit of a daydream etc. I was much calmer in thought after taking the ritalin. My thinking was not so much slower as just focused. It's like I wasnt spending 3/4 of my mental energy just trying to keep focused on what I was doing let alone doing it before. I was also able to do the boring chores of my daily life that are as painful as a filling w/o novaciane to, normally.
