One of the biggest things I noticed was my mood. I just felt happier. I wasn't getting as annoyed with people, like I normally do. The first week on the meds, did more for me than 3 years on anti-anxiety and anti-depression meds ever did.
This was the same thing I noticed from day one ☝🏽 I was just able to allow various stimuli from my environment to ‘happen’ like loud noises, bright lights, even muffled sounds, unexpected movements (I work with preschoolers so there’s A LOT of that!) 😂
I admit I giggled when you were in the midst of it and said you weren't really feeling that much, but absentmindedly noted that you worked out, ran a bunch of errands and cleaned your house.
I loved this. I just started my first dose of Concerta today and noticed a lot of the same effects you did. I did get a headache, but it went away. I noticed the clarity of the world. It's like I could see textures that I never noticed before. Conversations are easier, I can actually listen. Also, my spelling and handwriting is better! So odd. I hope it goes well for you as you increase your dosage :)
I hope to get diagnosed and get meds next week. It's so relieving to read great experiences like this. My life has been so messed up. I am looking towards experiencing life in a better way after starting medication.
I’ve been taking this for 2 months now (18MG)… my recommendation to anyone taking it is to just make sure they drink enough water and eat, also get enough sleep or you’ll get bad headaches. Besides that it’s life changing.
@@jiannaprevost6155 I stayed on 18mg couldn’t go up, I’m so sensitive to stimulants. Some people can take much higher dosages and not feel as many side effects.
@@alee7275 the first days are rough on your stomach it evens out well after a while. But if you stop taking it for a few days then go back the start up symptoms come back. Just stay consistent I guess.
My first day on concerta was similar. I likened it to being in a snow globe that had been shaken nonstop for most of my life and my first day on concerta, the flurries started to settle. I could see more clearly the things around me.
just started it over the weekend after being diagnosed with adhd last week, and work has been a weird experience since monday, but you explained it in ways i couldn’t describe, so thank you for helping me with the words for my follow up appointment 🥲 thank you. also - music/tv/movies have also made me more emotional lately but i can snap out of it a lot quicker i’ve noticed.
18mg - ... Is this thing on? 36mg - ...oh ok I think I get what you're going for 54mg -... And all is right with the world. WOW. Never leave me again. ❤️
@@jessecuster4662 I can speak only for me. It's been a game changer in the best way possible. Adding an optional small dose of instant release Ritalin (same base medication) for long days when I know I'll need an end of day boost (meetings, homework) has also been great.
@@will.mcguire I’m on concerta xl 18mg First 3 days was the calmest I’ve felt in years, no anxiety, intrusive thoughts etc. Day 4 the anxiety spiked. I suppose I’ve got to give it time to adjust
I'm with ya Will. Gotta find a dose that works for you. 54 seems to be perfect for me, but my good friend who is about 5 inches taller and also heavier than me finds that 36 is what works for him. It really varies person to person as to what is the optimal dose. Thanks for sharing!
Normally do you also feel very tired physically at night? Or is it just me? Also I can't have the brand one because of lactose and feel a lower energy around 16/17pm and it gets back to normal an hour latter but apart from it it seems to be working
When you take ADHD medications every second counts! Dont waste the pill. Use ADHD medications to do stuff that requires thinking and concentration. Go to the gym at the end of the day.
Oh trust me I do friend. I took my med for the first time while on holidays to see how it affected me before using it on a work day. Also, would hardly consider it a waste, as loud busy places like this can be anxiety provoking for me. I was able to relax, focus on what I needed to, and have some easy conversations with people I knew. Quite a nice experience 😊. Many benefits of methylphenidate other than being laser productive at work.
I could never let the gym for the end of the day, since I started concerta I finally have energy in the morning (and also sleeping better) but at night I can't do anything physical at all. But everyone is different ofc
It actually gave me motivation in the gym. I’ve always struggled staying consistent going to the gym and I’ll get bored and leave early. On meds I can go in there and crush it
Very interesting how you noticed the world being turned down, and positive effects on social anxiety. I'm autistic and suffer both sensory issues and social anxiety. As I've recently been diagnosed ADHD looking forward to seeing if there's any similar effects for me. Will watch for your next video post on how Concerta is working out longer term. Thanks!
Thanks so much for your comment! I hope you have some relief from that darn social anxiety. Concerta has done wonders for mine. I'm planning a follow-up video really soon. Just had a few other projects to complete before then. Thanks again!
How are you doing? I'm in my 60s, just diagnosed last week with ADHD and Asperger's, have had anxiety and problems with focus or decisions most of my life. I have problems sleeping, so the doctor who recently diagnosed me last week didn't prescribe me a medication. I was hoping he would...I really need to focus better.
I noticed less anxiety and more able to talk to people without worrying so much. I take 45 mgs with busprin as well. Doesn’t help me with being super productive or anything but it helps me immensely with my anxiety.
I’m great on 18mg concerta but my phschiatrist upped it to 36mg, I was really Sick for days, was losing my mind so went back down to 18mg. Everyone is different and different doses work for different people.
I was on Ritalin first and started with 20mg a day, but it only worked the first day, we got to 40mg (2 doses of 20mg), it would work some days yes, others not much. So I started on concerta 54mg, but am not able to have the brand one because of lactose. Still feel the waves when it doesn't work, I hope to find a way to make it work better. When you say you feel sick, what exactly did you feel?
I am 44yrs old and have been diagnosed with ADHD. Today is my first day on Concerta(18mg). I'm about an hour in and I just feel calm and less aggravated so far. After a week, they said I can double it up. That's funny about the vision. I swear the colors on things looks better!😂. I also am not so easily aggravated.
I wish you the best on this.. I was on Concerta for 3 yrs, it eventually had me spiralling with neg. thoughts, self doubt etc. Doc moved me to Vyvanse for 2.5 yrs before I took myself off. Vyvanse gave me Raynaud’s disease, doc didn’t know it was possible. I felt good on Vy but my wife tells me about 1/10th happy compared to 10/10 happy off meds. Off meds is a struggle, no doubt. Which is less of the struggle I guess is the question. Hope it does amazing for you, sorry for late response to a video so lon ago.. YT just showed it to me.
Thank you for the comment! I'm sorry to hear it's not working so well for you. Maybe a different dosage or different med entirely will be more effective 🤔. Really hope you find something that works for you 😊.
Thanks for posting. I'm on day two of concerta..i use to take ritalin (instant release) 50mg a year ago..but I've switched to concerta (54mgs) to see how I go. So far I've got mostly positive feedback to give. But I've noticed by about 2pm my eyes feel like I've been crying..you know that stinging sensation you get from crying, like you're tired. Is that dry eyes, is it? And a little bit of a head ache..do those side effects subside? And if so, after how long?
I was taking methylphenidate and was doing fine for a few months until I had coffee/caffeine and had dreadful anxiety attack for a few days, even thoughts of killing myself. Caffeine is recommend to be avoided with methylphenidate
Wtf? My eyes also dried up a bit.. is this really concerta? First time 18 mg and I don't feel much honestly except for this slight caffeine high but without anxiety. Also being quite calm but cannot tell if this is placebo or not. (Honestly though.. I'm not a guy who meditates but when I did I felt the same. You can probably induce this calmness and focus by just meditating for 10 mins, i.e. breathing exercises)
Thanks for this, I have my appointment in 2 days, and I am hoping to get switched onto concerta. I am currently on antipsychotics and they made me depressed AF, literally nothing is fun to me anymore. (Got ADHD and depression diagnosed this year at the age of 30)
Thanks for sharing Patrick. Well a fabulous side effect off the concerta is that I am overall just a happier person in general (likely because life seems way less overwhelming 😀). My wife noticed how much happier I seem (she talks about it during the follow up video). Hope the same for you! 👊 Here's a link to the follow up video czcams.com/video/W__8vCztRGM/video.html
Hey guys, I just got prescribed the 18mg so I can concentrate better for school and work. I’m nervous about starting because I read about the side effects - hallucinations😖. I’m not really diagnosed with ADHD, but need to pass exams. Your positive reviews are helping. Please comment for encouragement🥺 what do you think?
lol same here. waiting for the appointment for the meds next week. I need them asap cause of the bachlorthesis i am currently writing. Do you have adhd symptomps but just havent been diagnosed yet? because if not, then better not take the drugs, cause on "normal" people they actually dont work the right way.
Why are doctors giving out stimulants to people without ADHD? So you can pass exams? I am going to guess you're American, because if I went to my doctor here in the UK and said "I need some drugs to help me pass my exams" he would laugh at me and kick me out of his office. If you don't have ADHD, the medication won't work in the same way on you.
Great video I’m about to start my medication on elvanse in the coming days how do you feel like the medication helped ur conversations with people and also eye contact?
Yes! I find it much easier to to effectively express my thoughts and ideas in a coherent manner while using Concerta. And improves my ability to process what my conversations partner is saying and helps my maintain eye contact. I really hope Vyvanse provides you similar benefits 😊.
Did you notice any difference yet on elvanse ? I’m taking concerta 54 mg but still didn’t feel any noticeable difference. Thinking about switching to elvanse
@@devababay6976 I did but not enough to not change from what I heard it’s very good but not enough for My chemistry might change onto Ritalin or concerta
Any headaches? I have noticed I can’t eat. I have a headache that starts around 4pm. And I’m shaking. Super weird. I’m on 20mg and started about a week ago
Im 4 ft tall… im taking 36 mg and im feeling absolutely nothing… i mean i have heart palpitations and that kinda anxiety feeling when your on a rollercoaster and it starts to move… I don’t feel any of the pros… just the cons
@@patryk5654 i switched to ritalin... same deal. Im a lil too broke for another appointment with my psychiatrist so they told me to just stop taking it for this summer break. Im not really sure what else could help. My dad AND psychiatrist asked if i wanted to try adderall but its hard to get in my area.......sooooo im just waiting
There is a supplement which was TGA approved which is the Aussie version of the FDA board , called Mindlift. It is all natural and no side effects . It increases the dopamine level , helps you focus and reduces stress and anxiety .
Yes, but I normally feel tired, I think it could be chronic fatigue due to other things, When my dosage was low it would only work the first day with Ritalin, the last dose was 2x a day 20mg, so when I changed to concerta went to 54mg and it's so much better, somedays I still feel it in the end of the day, but its so much better, also I think with time it will stabilise
From what I've searched some people don't interact with methylphenidate, so you may benefit from amphetamines like vevanse, I have a friend that Ritalin was horrible to her, but ever since she started vevanse her life is normal (her add is super high so it's clear it's working for her, but also her dose is pretty high)
Oh it was awful for me the first few days, I’d be up until the sun came up. What helped me was taking my meds a lot earlier in the day (I’d wake up, take my meds, and then go back to sleep) and cutting out caffeine, despite it never really interfering with my sleep before. Now I’m asleep before 2 and I’m up by 8:30!
It doesn't give you a stoned effect at all. In my personal experience I feel noticeably happier, but this is likely due how easy daily tasks and conversations have become. If you do feel 'wired', it should become less noticeably over time as your body adjusts to the medication 😊

Does it give you a stoned effect ?
Wired crazy focus
It doesn't give you a stoned effect at all. In my personal experience I feel noticeably happier, but this is likely due how easy daily tasks and conversations have become. If you do feel 'wired', it should become less noticeably over time as your body adjusts to the medication 😊
