I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps.

I experienced all of the side effects that you are experiencing, just add horrible sweating, fluctuating body temperature (take off my jacket because I'm hot, then put it back on because I'm cold), and lots and lots of tics/twitches.
If you don't like it, then go to your Doctor and ask for something different.
No reason you shouldn't be able to try different meds until you find the one that works best for you.
I've been on Strattera, Adderall, Concerta, and Daytrana.
I've finally settled on Vyvanse, it works the best for me.
Talk to your Doctor about it, only downside is that it's really expensive without insurance.
