I liked it a lot. It did give me more energy, and also decreased suicidal ideation (I was taking Provigil, too, not sure which did this, or if I needed both). I took it for a year or so.
I dropped it this spring because it was causing unbearable sweating (and I didn't want to go through another summer like that). I was so hot (beads of sweat sitting still at 85 degrees) that I couldn't do anything. The sweating was almost more debilitating than the depression (I know it sounds strange, but it really was). I could tolerate it in the winter, but I couldn't do it again in the summer.
If it didn't make me overheat, I'd still be on it.
P.S. I took it for depression, not ADHD.
