Has anyone here made the switch from Ritalin to Concerta? I've just switched and I'm nervous about withdrawal and side effects.

Hey there,

I know you're looking for advice on here and I'm sure there are plenty of people who will get back to you, (and not to sound like a broken record but) the best thing you can do if you're nervous is talk to your doctor...right away! Until then, are there any specific effects you're experiencing right now? Please tell me more.

Thank you for your input
