Ritalin day 11 - Conclusions before going to neurologist

Took the 2 pills at 9:45 AM (Ritalin 40 and 20 mg)
Did not feel them kick in, almost no physical response - but I do feel the urge to do stuff.
Actually I would define it as Create Stuff - simple consumption makes me feel irritated
Image result for irritated




The feeling is stronger than 40mg oon its own, the 40 was subtle and I just felt the result when tried to do work (At this point I'm no longer assume that I have the placebo because I have more physical feeling and practically the same behavioral response on stronger dose)

So it seems that when I Procrastinate or Work I do it with all chips in. That leads me to conclusion that I will have to make a conscious decision to engage in work and then enjoy the benefits of the ritalin induced focus.
Otherwise I would procrastinate like hell and then have tons of guilt to depress me.


The interesting decisions is  - what do I tell to the doctor? Was 40 mg working for me or is 60mg is the actual dose that I need. I seem to experience the benefits of the smaller dose but I still managed to wonder off or even not feel the pill on that day.
The 60 mg is actually strong, I actually feel that i'm a bit not myself, but only enough to register this and not have this as a main feeling.

I will continue working on it
