I've counted 5 hours, so I took another of my A.D.D. meds.

It doesn't help.

I've been stressed off my ASS for a few weeks here, and for the most part, excluding a few lengthy spontaneous rants, I think I've been handling it pretty well.

I can't concentrate, I feel hyperactive (which is weird, I don't usually have a problem with the hyperactivity thing)... and I don't REALLY feel like talking to anyone but I'd rather embarrass myself online on a teen forum than in person or on aim to people I know in person.

I feel like I have no verbal impulse control. I'm swearing a lot (more than usual, heh), I actually feel kind of just generally nervous. No really it's like I woke up one day and I'm 12. Or mentally so.

I don't mean to be antisocial to my roommates, but really I'm just afraid I'm going to make an ass of myself if I socialize directly.

I can feel the effect of the meds now, but it doesn't make me feel any better.

Ugh.....

Do some things that you enjoy. Meds often screw things up worse, and they don't work a lot of the time.

Maybe you could try heavy excercise, or doing something really thrilling? That may help you get some of this out. I'd think that getting off the meds would help the most for now, what are you on?

Stop the meds?

One is only crazy if he believes it.
