I've been prescribed sixty, ten mg pills a month since I was fifteen. I took two a day with no problem until mid-way through my junior year. I had lost 40 lbs, and began to take up to 100 mg a day. This continued until graduation, then I opted to stop taking it all together. I gained back most of the weight, went off my anti depressants, and felt "normal" again. I went through my first semester of college without touching it. Recently I decided to go back on, and feel into old habits. Even without it I'm a studying machine, but it doesn't compare to the intensity of what I can get done when I take it.. I'm just wondering if anyone else is in my situation?
