Basically, I'm being silly to procrastinate more studying of:
"A Conceptual Framework for Judging the Humaneness and Effectiveness of Behavioral Treatment"

I'm not hyper - -just antsy, because I'd rather do anything else than studying. Which is why I have the ADD forums open in a window!! LOL

I think in order to focus, I better take 1/2 - thanks for the suggestion, both of you, I was thinking the same thing!!
I need to attempt being productive tonight!


If anyone else wants to add their "The worst is when . .. . . " please feel free!!


PS. Emma S "ants in my pants" is a figure of speech - i'm antsy, can't focus on one thing, can't sit still . . . .

My meds help me stay up, so I understand this point, to its extream.... the other night I was up until 3am because I forgot (ADD as always) to take it when I got up and took it after lunch. When I take them in the morning I'm good till about 10pm then I'm out. So if I know I have a late night, I'll take it later, if I have an early class I take it right away.... don't know what I'll do when these are in the same day...

TOTALLY AGREE! It was so BAD last semester. I am a night person and as a good ADDer I leave everything for the last minute :D. So, I'm taking the non slow release version of ritalin like everynight, staying up super late, get a couple of hours of sleep, go to class, come back and take a nap. That's a summary of my life last semester :/

Other than that when the effects from any meds wear off... aghh.... I get paranoic and afraid to talk to people or that something bad is going to happen (I am usually in a good mood and very outgoing). That and the normal stomach ache.
