I like thinking in depth while I drive. It makes me feel good and sometimes I come to good useful conclusions.
Yesterday I drove when Concerta already kicked in. I kept my line of thought and managed to process the inner monologue like a champ.
Today I drove before it worked

I wasn't able to keep one straight thought for even a minute, I don;'t even recall what I was thinking about at all.
So that's a good isolated example and proof for me that the meds do work. The contrast with the Ritalin LA is pretty big. I felt the med and acted. Now I act and can only register the effect when I accomplish something that I normally wouldn't .
Interesting effect I must say. Also I noticed that because I don't feel the med I don't wait for "Approval" to engage in focus demanding action. So this made me effective even before it kicks in AND after. Basically I am establishing a habit and the lack of distinction makes it easy.
I just hope that I can keep it like this for a log while.
