Hi, I've been dealing with the symptoms of ADD and some of the 'H' factors my whole life. Growing up in a small town in the Midwest, stuff like this goes unnoticed. After so many years of being frustrated, short tempered, and stressed, I'm finally getting some relief. My relationships were severely damaged, kids, and significant others, because of the aforementioned. Work was tuff, I daydreamed all the time and got narcoleptic during meetings, my thoughts and daydreams were hard to control and manage.

Now...
My doctor had me work on my physical health and go to counseling. I did what he said and took an online quiz for adult ADHD. The doctor prescribed Concerta for 3+ weeks. It took a while to feel consistent, but I'm getting there. Instantly I felt more sociable, calmer, more rational, more patient, and more alert. When I daydream (yes I love to daydream), there's a clear line between them, no cloudiness, I transition between thoughts very clearly. There were a few days in the first week where I felt overwhelmed suddenly and stressed, but that seems more controllable now.

Future...
I have hope and a positive outlook now.

Questions...
Do the affects of the medication continue to improve? Does the brain learn to heal and rewire itself; does it produce those chemicals with regularity overtime on its own?
