anyway, looking back now, it explains a lot.
i never went through with the dexedrine trial - i didn't want to do it on my own, just in case something went wrong. so i'll probably just wait until my doc's run me through every Ritalin dose, before moving onto Dex.
fb - this may sound a little vague, but do you feel smarter on dex? my short term memory and processing abilities feel a little shot (from med trials, depression, etc.), so i would love to be able to think clearly again. what i don't really want, though, is 'superfocus', just because that level of stimulation doesn't seem to match my lifestyle [unemployment :)].
