[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 684561, member: 1963"] Well, I've tried the "speed" that was around in the seventies and didn't like it at all. My first psychiatrist diagnosed me with ADHD and depression and trialed me on Ritalin. I managed one dose of Ritalin. It was horrible. I've since found out that I have ADD (NO H), but can't tolerate the medications due to the bipolar. husband had severe ADHD. No rages or anything, luckily. He coped with lots of caffeine and whole bunch of lifestyle and management stuff that he'd developed over the years. He did very well in the Army as it was very regimented and there were rules and procedures for everything. When he was outprocessing on a medical discharge, he was put on Ritalin while 'clearing'. It did wonders for him. He tried some of the longer acting stims as they came out, but preferred Ritalin as he could take it when he needed to be "with it", and be "himself" when he didn't. The only thing I didn't like about the Ritalin was that if he didn't eat as soon as the Ritalin wore off, he was crankier than all get out. [/QUOTE]
