how many of us suffer from what

[Loser]

Rittalin was great. It was the only time I've ever taken usefull notes. Ever.

Unfortunately, music didn't mean as much to me while I was on it, so it got the boot. Gotta have my tunes.

I was on Rittalin for years during childhood, and I now attribute my memory issues to it. My problems are just to close to the long term effects of heavy meth use for me to fail to suspect some conection between those chemical cousins.

Noteable side effects are one thing, but it was the one I didn't notice that really got to me. I could say, however, that if I were at a different piont in my life it wouldn't have made as much of a difference. Not to say 'older' or 'younger', just 'different'.

I don't know if I tried Welbutrin, but I'm fortunate enough to get by okay without help these days.

Actually my problem is more 'physical'. However I agree with being careful with meds. I switched to a painkiller called Ultram a while back and had a VERY cheap drunk episode. My normal capacity for beer is a couple of six packs - but on Ultram I was 'wasted' on only 3 beers. That sure caught me by suprise, and prompted a few embarrasing questions later.
MORAL: ALWAYS read the caution labels.
