hello, zeugma! :)
how are you doing today?:) always nice to hear from you! thank you so much for letting me know that about the strattera...veeeeddy interesting....:)!
and i didn't know about provigil's long half-life. that does definitely seem potentially problematic for sure, as far as sleep is concerned. and i'm sure you'll do just fine on the ritalin.:)
take care!

I wish I could have taken it, because I am at risk for cardio complications due to the TCA I take, and I require a stimulant of some kind besides just caffeine. So I'm on a tiny dose of Ritalin LA, and trying to make the best of it.
