I absolutely hated this drug. The drug would last for about an hour then i would crash and become extremely tired to the point where I would doze off. It made me not want to talk to anyone and feel like a zombie. I'd also get goosebumps randomly. I tried different doses but all of them didn't work. I recommend adderall or focalin XR.
