well took a lot out of me but I finally got what I needed. my reg dr. talked with me, agreed with me that I needed to get off all that medication, and just try some good ole ritalin. she also told me that she had several other patience come to her about the dr. I was seeing saying they did not want to go back to her. she gave me a test in her office to cover her end, and said I scored well above what was needed to diagnose me. and she prescribed me some ritalin. my ego and confidence is back to normal after my humiliating experience with other dr. I thought I would have to do a lot of explaining and prove to her in some way that I didn't want the drugs for pleasure. but she didn't even question me about that she just told me that she knew that I didn't like to take medicine that I was a stable fellow and a good family man, so there was no question. a lot different from a dr. that deals primarily with probation and parole clients, who obviously thought less of me than she should have. I guess I cant blame her I am probably the only non criminal client they have, not that it excuses her for her actions, but I am less angry now. no real effect from the ritalin yet just kinda calm and tired like I could take a good nap. wish me luck thanks.
