Seemed to be working. When I realized how expensive it was along with my uncertain employment future, I quit it after only 3 days. I also was concerned about how I might feel if I HAD to quit it in the future. I got severely depressed after quitting it. I knew it was withdreawl symptoms and just bore the affects until they were gone. Too scared to go back on it.I'd rather try affordable Biofeedback treatments, if there are any out there.

After being on it for 6 years, my experienced negative thoughts of hurting herself. Trying Vyvanse and not too happy with that one either.

my experience is with long acting biphenten, my son was on concerta, but the capsule was too hard for his body to break down, so we tried biphenten, and have been thrilled ever since, he's been on it for 2+ years, and it's made all the difference
