So I recently got my diagnosis and a RitalinLA prescription. I started with 10mg and am now on 20mg. The problem is, that I don’t feel any difference. I don’t take it on weekends, so I have regular references, but everything is still the same. For reference I’m an early twenties male. Did anyone have similar experiences and if so, was it just a dosage issue? Because I feel like there should be some effect at least.

Early on your doctor will give you lower doses to see how you respond. Just work with your doctor to adjust the dosage or even change to another drug, concerta, Adderall ect.
