A.d.d/adhd?

I know that A.D.D/ADHD may be a fabricated condition, but my question is more about the medication.

Has any of you been/are prescribed Ritalin/Adderall/Concerta? I'm currently taking 72mg concerta a day and i was wondering if it had any effect (Positive or negative) on your social skills. When i first started taking them last year, i noticed that i was more talkative but i wasnt doing what i was supposed to. Example; my friend also took them, he was reclusive and focused but still as social as normal. However I, on the other hand was a whole lot more social but i wasn't interested in doing any work because i thought it was boring and irrelevant. Have any of you benefited from it in terms of girls or related situations?

The problem with taking drugs that affect neurochemistry is that each person's brain is a little bit different. They have a different balance, and taking the same drugs as another person can give completely different results as in the case of you and your friend.

I've had a few friends take it to study but from what I know about it I definitely would not take it unless you have the disease. If you took it to do work, and now you are doing even less work, I especially would stay away from them.

Any stimulant tends to make me more talkative. I've read plenty of posts on RSD about guys taking Adderall to get into "state". Of course, the downside is that amphetamines can be addictive, and with such things if you take them regularly the affect tends to lessen as time goes on. Then you end up having to take them just to feel normal.
