ive read a lot of studies on this stuff (actually what I wanted to do for a while before i found the interwebs and porn haha) and the long term side effects and withdrawal are bad. Ritalin for instance causes similar effects to Alzheimer - loss of "wrinkles" in the brain, retroactive amnesia, etc,.

not trying to scare you, but just be careful man. most ADD and ADHD patients feel the same effects as being "medicated" with normal exercise, moderate carb diet and regular sleep schedule.
Just because you have read this stuff does not mean its the same for everyone. I was first put on concerta when I was 16 years old and I went from a f student to top of the class straight A student. I took myself off it two years later and ended up dropping out of school. I recently got insurance and asked to be put on something again to help with my adhd and ive been put on Ritalin and although it is not as good as the concerta was ive noticed a huge difference and i have never had any side affects like you have mentioned on either drug.

People do not understand for those who truly have ADD or ADHD in a society that thinks differently then we do and at times does not process information fast enough it is really hard to pay attention or sit still or do what is needed. I am against most medications but I can honestly say until society realizes people with ADD and ADHD have a lot of special gifts and give them the proper environment to use those gifts meds is the best we got.
