It's amazing stuff. I use it and within 20 minutes I'm an organised, rational, motivated normal person. Loads of energy too. It enabled me to achieve a qualification because I could finally stop the daydreaming and focus on task.

And then within a couple of hours, I have horrific anxiety (I don't suffer with anxiety otherwise), and a weird, impending sense of doom. Then that wears off too and I feel a bit deflated and depressed. But fine again after that as it's a short release

Has anyone had these experiences? It hasn't got any better in months

I am feel right now, as if I'm having a panic attack. The only thing that keeps me okay during this is constant activity and keeping really busy

I have tried slow release and that was truly awful for me. It made me feel like I was in a constant state of up and down.
