What is it?

Concerta's a drug used to treat ADHD. It's actually long-lasting methylenidate (Ritalin) that comes in capsule form. Depending on what strength a person uses, the drug can make them study for HOURS ON END. Useful if you're looking to get ahead in school.

Personally, Concerta doesn't work that well for me. When I was on it, it just made me extremely agitated and withdrawn. Any drug containing methylenidate seems to tick me off emotionally. I do much better with Dexedrine, amphetamine, an ECA stack (pretty effective concentration trio!) or the highest-dosage Adderall XR. What works for someone doesn't nessasarily work for another.
