Ritalin?
 

Hello again,
I'm seeing a therapist who's referred me to a psychiatrist who specializes in TBIs. i'm seeing him tomorrow. The therapist said ritalin might be able to help with focus. though lack of focus isn't my main complaint...depression, anxiety, fatigue, headaches, brain freezes (cognitive fatigue) are...

found this http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15641125 saying ritalin could help w/ depression too and sounds like if side effects are horrible it wears off pretty quickly.

Thoughts? experience?

I hit my forehead left of center almost four months ago. making progress but feel like 100% is still months away and i'm anxious to get back to my job in mid sept if possible

I have been prescribed concerta (a form of ritalin) but have yet to start. Was told it can help with lethargy and concentration, etc. I am a bit scared but may give it a try soon.

I found good success with amantadine but I need to get to a new level now.
Let us know how it goes!

I'm on adderall for the same reason, started it last week and so far I hate it. It makes concentration harder and the dizziness is all day and my meclizine doesn't even touch it. The doctor said my body has to get use to it, but it makes me feel like I wanna jump out of my skin.
