Hey guys I would really appreciate your input.

I am a college student. I was hoping that taking Concerta would help with my ADHD symptoms.

I perhaps have a bit too much hope pinned down on taking this medication, so am trying to gain a realistic picture. Im not sure what impact it will have and so am understandably anxious.

I was just wondering if your experiences were positive?

I was also wondering if any ladies on hormonal contraceptives (for whatever reason) if they thought it was bad to take the Concerta alongside it. My emotions can be a bit over the place and so I was wondering if a cocktail of these medications would make it better/ worse?

Cheers :)

I'm on concerta and it helps me a lot at work. I no longer have days where I just stare at my monitor and get nothing done.

Brilliant! I have this problem myself, take me a long time to get started and can be so unproductive. Good to know it could help lift the fog!
