so i started it 2 weeks ago, XR 20mg. First day i was reading books in grammar, which was a first for me yeah im 16. Even my teacher was surprised. 2nd day it started to wear off but a little feeling. 3rd day no effect, even my tutor asked me if i didn't take my med's. on the 7th day i took XR 40mg because i didn't take it on the 6th day (Sunday) so i could see if XR 40mg would get me feeling like i was on day one. Nothing not even a lil different, same old me. So my therapist jumped it to 30mg, 20mg XR and take 10mg IR twice a day. Still nothing, the 30mg Ive been on for 3 days and hasn't helped me in creed at all, just helps my impulse a very very lil so i don't do stupid things AS much. I'm just wondering why did i only feel the effects the 1st day and a lil the 2nd? And my Doc already has me on 30mg and he says the most anyone that has ADD should take is 40mg. Do i have a record tolerance or is my doc stupid? is 30mg a lot? when he jumps it to 40mg you think after a few days of that i'll start feeling it again?
(i also take klonopin 2mg)
thankz...
College horror stories?! More scared than excited?

I guestimate I have too much free time. I was reading a college preparation book at B&N the other day (think it's called The Naked Roommate), and while it was presumed to help you out, it mostly said scary things to be prepared for. I also was on FB groups and they said so too. Things such as you'll want to silence your roommate, you will probably get robbed, teachers will go out of their way to fail you, the food is awful, people vomit all over bathrooms (bad worry of that), rapes, laundry costs too much (my dad is not giving me a lot of spending money for college). Now I'm terrified! Do i just have too much furlough time or should I be aware of these things?
the incident is what you make of it. I have had an excellent experience.

i was distraught once too
but don't worry about any of what you read
its like you always hear about people's heads getting flushed in toilets in lower high but that never happened (i hope)
books like that are just out there for entertainment- they take the rarest and most exotic stories and collect them to make people laugh

You should be watchful of those dangers but just remember why you are going there in the first place, to get an education.

the catalogue raisonn goes on! How much did your father give you for spending money? We might be able to work something out. Ever since watching that movie with the little stuff from ET going back to High School, I've always wanted to go undercover!

wow id be afraid about the laundry costing to much as well geez , i think people are just saying this stuff to scare people i distrust that would be right , the cops would be all over their arse if that was real , dont worry im sure it will be ok , and you could always call home if you feel unsafe.

Getting robbed is not right at all. if you get "robbed", it would most likely be something like leaving your iPod in plain sight for 3 hours unattended and someone larceny it. It's not like you'll get robbed at gun point. Most roommates are fine. They are just like you. Nervous, busy, juvenile, restless, etc. You have a lot in common, so just be nice to them and they'll probably be nice to you. Teachers don't try to fail you. There are a few classes in any main that are tough, but just study and read your notes and you'll be fine. However, there are always a few teachers who almost never give "A's". But regularly those are the classes like English where your grades are always subjective, like based on writing papers rather than tests with lawful or wrong answers. But no teacher gets enjoyment out of failing anyone. Dorm food is not that bad. It just gets kinda tiring after a while. Laundry? I always took mine domestic every weekend. If you can't do that, maybe you can find a laundromat in the local town that's cheap. No one says you have to do your laundry in the dorms. Puke? I guarentee you that the drinking and puking is worse in the apartments than the dorms. If you are in act going to live in apartments off campus, well... yea, you'll probably see some partying and maybe a bit of puke.
In uncivil, it's not nearly as bad as your fears. I absolutely loved college. It was ten times better than H.S., i loved being out of my parents diet, and it's a lot better than having a boring old job after college. Trust me, you will like it a lot and you'll miss it a lot when you graduate.

Why can't I find a boyfriend?
Jul 29, 2009 by enthusiastoptimistic | Posted in Singles & Dating
Hello Everyone, I seem to have a unimaginative problem.
I'm alone and I can't understand why. A little about myself:
I am a 23 year old attractive gay male, officially and openly out of the closet . I like to accouter nicely, smell good, look clean. I am going to university, I have graduated from some previous programs before. I admonish and write fluently English, French and Spanish. I am fairly well cultured and well traveled. I consider myself offer minded. I live with 3 other very nice roomates ( they are not gay) in a nice apartment in downtown close to any popular bar or sisterhood or mall.
People usually think I look like Brad Pitt with a heart of gold. People portray me that a problem I have is that of the word no, I have a hard time saying it, and that I help to much other people.
Other people can't believe when I advise them that I am still a virgin. I tell them the opportunity has not yet been presented . Still they don't believe me or they tell me that they thought I was a guy that had like a lot of boyfriends and stop like that. When I ask them why, they say always two things, because of my physique and because I am very friendly and positive.
More about me to help you figure out what is going on so you can recommend me anything:
I have never had a serious relationship in my duration. Once, I dated a girl for a year, nothing sexual ever happened and off course we had to brake up because of my orientation ( a lot of men where after this girl so this was a recess for a lot of people), The other one was a guy I met on a summer vacation, I liked him immediately. I had no Idea it was reciprocal, until I left and then I admitted to him that I liked him, already away over the computer, to which he admitted the same. We started a extended distance relationship, after a month it was going to fast, the guy wanted to live with me etc... broke the relationship, even when this other guy was even like the most desired masculine from the group I was hanging out with that vacation, and we never even kissed or anything. So as you can see not really any relationship at all. A total looser when it comes to that.
I started to surprise, maybe I am ugly, since I believe we all live in a dilution. But then I started thinking, then why such comments from my roommates for warning, when he tells me stuff like, to bad you're gay, because you'd get any woman you want, or well, high school I had a lot of girls whos goodness I had to break. I have been told by the popular girls in school ( i know it sounds cliche but it is true) that I was the only not absurd man in school and once one of the girls asked me to participate in a modeling event with her, which I did.
Funny thing is that even after this, physical dreamboat is something that I don't look to much into people. When I worry about my appearance mostly I am worrying that it looks clean, not beautiful but clean, to show my beneficent sense of hi-gene. Luckily I have a sister in fashion who loves buying me cloths so I am always in good mania ( when I don't even understand fashion).
What else, despite being gay and friendly and positive, I don't pass as flamboyant, they tell me I am just full of vigour. I am friendly, I like to go out with friends, watch movies, read a lot of books and I get good grades. I come from a tidy, inteligent nuclear family, open minded family with a good background and good manners. i am a very substantial gentleman. I don't have any health problems, I am in good physical condition. good financial position and I beam a lot with perfect teeth ( the dentist said I had the teeth the way they should all be and that I did not need any braces)
But today it all hit me suddenly, halfway through the day I became pass I stopped everything I was doing and started feeling this horrible sadness and then I realized what my life had been and I believe it is about all together I should have some relationship.
Another thing is that I can't never tell when someone is flirting with me, and my friends never tell me if there is anyone interested in me.
I know it was a long depiction and I realize I sound very egotistical. But please forgive me this once for talking so high about myself ( a thing I cautiously avoid) but I never do it, and since this is the incorrigible that I am having I had to live my pride behind and tell you how it is.
Please any suggestions any answers will be welcome, but please serious answers, I feel very queasy at the moment.
Thanks for taking your time to read this.

I shot in the dark I have too much free time. I was reading a college preparation book at B&N the other day (think it's called The Naked Roommate), and while it was imagined to help you out, it mostly said scary things to be prepared for. I also was on FB groups and they said so too. Things such as you'll want to assassinate your roommate, you will probably get robbed, teachers will go out of their way to fail you, the food is awful, people vomit all over bathrooms (bad loathing of that), rapes, laundry costs too much (my dad is not giving me a lot of spending money for college). Now I'm terrified! Do i just have too much without charge time or should I be aware of these things?
Anyone who's had the experience help me out?
I live in fear and this is NOT helping.
how can i take laundry knowledgeable in? They're 4 hrs away. If home was that close I'd live there.

I don't really like my life?
Jul 29, 2009 by lexus woo :) | Posted in Psychology
Okay well I'm 13 years old, and for the whilom few months I've haven't liked my life.... Every day is kind of a struggle for me. I never have anything to do during the day, I've got no friends, and I've got to deal with a lot of other crap.... First off I think I'm really ugly, and I hate the way I look. One time I put my photo on here to ask people what color I should die my braids, and someone said "nothing, go bald, your ugly, just die already". And people even agreed with him! (He's NOT the reason why I posted this call in!). I've got no friends at all! Well I have one friend, but we haven't talked in a while. I don't know what to do with myself here! Counseling hasn't helped yet, because my dad never payed the counselors. Speaking of my dad, sometimes I be thunderstruck if thinks I'm beautiful. Most of the time I think he doesn't, because he's always tell me that 'I need to start wearing come to up, and I need to straighten my hair" and blah blah blah. He kind of wants me to be like his girlfriend [that I disesteem very much]. I also wonder if likes his girlfriend more then me. He's always beleiving her, and not me on certain situations. Sometimes I even get yelled at because of something that SHE did. (All she is, is a liar.). Striking on, I've got my older brother who turned 18 in March. Ever since the day he has turned 18 he just treats me like crap! He's constantly employment me a "b*tch", "whore", and pretty much every other thing in the book.... Also he hits me all the circumstance! I tell him to leave me alone, but he wont do it. But when i wanna fight, he says "Get the hell away from me!!!!!!!". He exactly has the maturity level of a 2 year old. And now i just can't stand being around, because he's just an idiot any more. One more thing about him is that when he's around his friends he's ALWAYS got to record fun of me, and hit me, too show off. Pretty much what I'm saying is don't like my brother at all!
Okay well I can't really think of thing else to put here, but when I remember something I'll put on here.

you guys don't have to desire sorry for me
thanks for the advice ant :)

Unfortunately, I didn't get to stay up and meet Santa Claus on my first Christmas. But, the ole guy did leave me a picture of himself and some books and a map to read! Maybe he wants me to take over for Rudolph next year? St. Nick left me a map of the world, although it's from 1790. I do hope it's still good? He left me a book to look up words in, I believe so I can then be able to read the music book with lots of Christmas songs in it he left too. And, Father Christmas left a book on the meaning of Christmas called the Bible. I don’t think he meant too, but he also left me some postcards my mom wrote to him when she was a little girl last century. Did you know she always wanted a white puppy like me! I was Mommy’s early Christmas gift this year. -Kahuna Luna
