Day 1 of taking concerta. (So many side effects I cannot believe)

Here is going to be a short version.

By hour 3, nothing happened. I was still sleepy.
By hour 4 although, I could feel its presence.
By hour 5, I was able to focus on my work.
Hour 6, same, but HR rose to 90-100.
Hour 6 I got very anxious and laser and lost mood
I also had to go to the bathroom, and then my HR stayed at 120 for good 10-20 minutes.
Hour 7-8 It was more calm, I started feeling a little less effects of it and my drowsiness came back.
My blood pressure was normal. My temperature rose to 99F.

To expand onto all of this.
I felt hot since the beginning, I was clenching my jaw, I also did not feel a single bit of euphoria, goodness, or an uplifting of mood. It was like very very subtle focus but at the cost of making me feel a little bit more on the edge and as I started working deep the edginess also increased. My first experience was therefore, very mild in terms of any good thing happening but reactions and side effects were more or less all felt and happened.

I had 7hr+sleep with sleep score of 95, I am strictly vegan with the exemption of egg whites. I noticed increase in appetite, becoming less social and more jittery if anyone came to talk to me. I was purposefully not being engaging.
So my concern runs pretty deep now, this all happened with just 18mg dosage. I feel very wronged in terms of how good people’s reaction to this has been as seen on so many occasions but mine was so underwhelming, I cannot consciously even speak to any goodness that I might’ve felt.
This is so discouraging for me for a lot of reasons that I don’t want to get into. I really needed this Concerta to happen to me as it does for other people.

Alright (I really really need some clarity).

Now, I took it in the morning. 10.30am after breakfast.

3 hours in, felt absolutely nothing.

4th hour felt like feeling wired.

Felt a bit hot as well.
7th hour i.e. right now, my hr went to like 120.

Then came back to 80-90

My mood is jittery and anxious.

And my sleepiness has kicked back in.

The drug is still somewhat active but I do feel sleepy now. Despite 95 sleep score 7hr+ sleep.

Ask me more about something. Ill explain if someone needs more of an insight but about HR, I need to know more

I generally have avoided getting meds

And try to stay as much non med as possible

But now I have been prescribed and I may try it but I cannot see much about people being prescribed both. Its generally either of the two.

Do you guys think I should instead try with atomoxetine as a non stim?

I have bought the meds but I think I am too opposed to taking it. GPT says concerta will be good to know since its stim and the effects will be fully visible the first day itself, as compared to non stims which takes weeks to build.

Why am I so sleepy all the time! I dislike it very much but all these reviews I read of modafinil, armodafinil, how it made zero progress, gave anxiety, increase BP, HR makes me not want to take it.

But the thing is I am very sensitive to meds in general so im gen worried if its too much for me?

Should I tell doc to give me non stims?

18mg Concerta
50mg Armodafinil

Need very very genuine advice

And I never had no porn addiction. This isnt doing anything for me. Plus i never get sick, i feel sick right now.

I feel my productivity is a bit down

I’ve done SR and it is net net a good habit but at the same time my job is stressful and I’m not sure this is helping in any way

It’s such a melody, how he’s smoothing over the beat, the song is almost perfect. I dont know which sub genre this falls into

Would love to hear more songs of him like this

A mood where I want to listen more tunes like this. Idk what genre this falls into, but this song sounds so good. The words. Everything about this is almost perfect.

Any suggestions for songs more like this?

Just ended the last epi of s01,

JUST WHY. Such good family dynamics, the son, the daughter, this family was legit carrying the entire show, susan character is meh, mike is fine, but this family was just like a strong pillar, love carlos, love that family as well, laughing hysterically on “why does this keep happening to me”hahahaha on that gay thing

But I just dont get it, I never will
