I got my meds today, concerta 36 mg today and i feel like i am sitting for an exam. Mild trembles, hyper-aware and inability to sit still. Like a weaker version of caffeine for me.

From what i have seen online, caffeine, for alot of adhd ppl, works similarly to adhd meds, helping them focus. For me, it worsens my adhd, making me hyperactivity, hyper-aware and very trembles. I sort of addicted to it for 2 months or so. Drinking 4 to 5 cups a day.

Thinking about it now, this could be caffeine withdrawal rather than the meds. Either way, has anyone had similar experience?

    Counter it with some magnesium citrate. It helps me smooth things out on a regular. Oh and never mix with caffeine. Also, when you feel the come down rolling in: green tea. I am taking ritalin IR for 10 years now as an adult and those two have made taking it much more bearable.
