> I use to take adderall and I remember feeling absolutely fantastic when it was in my system...as Ritalin and Adderal both raise dopamaine i'd figure Ritalin would have a similar effect.. The results concerning focus were good...but I got this wierd "buzz" like caffinated feeling...something that although tolerable is a hurdle when it comes to enjoying life. Does anyone else experience this? Do you think i'll just get use to it..?.

> I usually feel great on focalin...and I heard focalin and ritalin are closely related...but they seem so much differnt....
I want to apologize for my previous post. I just reread it and it didn't say anything to help you at all.Have you tried or thought of adding something slightly sedating to get rid of that buzz like a benzo? Or would a benzo adversely effect your concentration and defeat the purpose? Possibly something alternative could help in this case.(Maybe Larry might have some ideas...)
(Why did you stop taking the Adderall and the focalin if they worked so well for you? Will your current doctor not prescribe them?)
