I was diagnosed with severe Adult ADD. I was put on this medication and the difference in my quality of life is like night and day. Mt bills have been paid ON TIME for 4 years now, I've stayed in the same home, I am organized. If I do not take this medication for a number of days then my house starts to look like the drawers and closets exploded. I have no ability to focus on taking care of indivi...
ive been on for 1 week 2day. 10 mgs in the am. I too get heart palpitations when i drink my coffee. I have had some mood issues but overall have been more patient. Im getting my period next week so Im not sure if this is effecting my mood or the pill? I also have bad cramping in my tummy today & have been dizzy here & there.

I have more patience with everyday tasks, I can now finish them too and am not worried to start another task. I don't panic like I used to. I have not lost my appetite or loss sleep, If you are, talk to your Dr. about lowering the dose. I feel like it is ok to get out of bed now everyday, I have the confidence that I know I can do it. I'm a great listener now.

I took this for many years before I lost my insurance. I was in college at the time and it helped me tremendously stay focused on my academics. I also discovered I had hep c and the use of drug helped combat the side affects of fatigue. I have to admit though be wary of how much you are taking or you will find yourself not eating and no sleeping very often and the regular use of this drug can make the side affects of these symptoms oblivious.
