With your new doctor, rather than shoot down the suggestions, ask for more information about them.

I think that's advice we can all use!
I'm not a medical doctor, but the Ritalin, like other stimulant medications, works by increasing the production of neurotransmitters, such as dopamine and norepinephrine, in the brain. (Reif, 1998) That can cause ability to slow down and focus. It's pretty controversial. Are you taking the SR (time release) ?
Any new medicine can cause a wide variety of responses by the body for the first few days or week.
Good wishes!
