How bad are everyone else's side effects? I currently take a 30mgXR in the morning and 10mgIR part way through the day. I can get some facial tics and other OCD like symptoms. They aren't bad enough to lower my dose or make other changes at this point. Just wondering what others are experiencing and if anyone has any tips or tricks to dealing with stuff like that.

I stopped after briefly going on it because it really suppresses my appetite. Which I'm already a skinny guy, so I don't need any more of that. It also made me really jittery, probably because of the combination of coffee.

I try to avoid stimulant meds now since they feel addictive to me. But don't let that discourage you from doing what works for you.
