I have ADHD and I finally took meds for it for the first time. Words can not even describe how much better I feel. I feel calm, i'm so much happier, my anxiety is gone, I can focus and the 40k other symptoms have faded to almost nothing. I highly suggest if you have ADHD to seek help for it. I'm 17 now i've known about my ADHD since I was 7 but never wanted to take drugs. But since I was falling so far behind in school I knew I had to do something about this. And I do not regret it at all. Also if you don't have ADHD this drug will not help you.

I'm glad you avoided taking them a lot when you were little, they can be very stunting on the higher functions of your brain, but it sounds like you really needed it! Just don't share it with people who don't need it, better yet don't tell your friends that you are on it. I know too many people who take it without even having anything they need it for.
