Robert,
So glad you are at peace (I think?) with your decision, and from what I read, it was a good one! You were very careful not to abuse, or become addicted to a med that for most, is hard not to do. I'm sure you are aware that many grad/medical students get a little help along the way. Be proud you used a med as it was intended. Nothing wrong with that. I envy you your intelligence. You are right, all the adderall, or Ritalin in the world isn't going to change our I.Q.s. However, when I needed it, Ritalin made it possible for me to accomplish what I NEEDED to, taking good care of my small kids (at the time) working a stressful job, building a house. I never did become addicted to Ritalin, which is what I like about it. But to each his own!
Your post will be very helpful to any out there considering Adderall and I will always recommend they read it! Thanks for sharing your experience.
