>>16067Absolutely. I don't really have a problem with this for work (electrical / software engineering), but it's a major problem in my personal life.
Medication has dramatically helped my focus issues, but it doesn't seem to have helped all that much with task completion or prioritization. At least, that's my experience with it. I do feel emotionally flat, however I don't think its the medication. I've noticed that I'm the same way when I'm off the meds, so I think that's just a me issue. It's also important to note that the medication originally increased my heart rate to about 100 bpm, but has since gone down to 90 bpm now that I've been regularly exercising. The one major concern that I have with the medication is the possible long term side effects of regular stimulant use on the body. I've been taking it for about 7 years now, and while my blood pressure is still normal, I can't help but worry if this will shorten my lifespan.
