Sleep improving, maybe?

The Good: 54mg Concerta is working for me during the day, for sure. It will be a week tomorrow that I started on that dose, and the positive effects are still with me. I'm much more focussed, and I don't feel jittery.

The Bad: sleep is still disrupted. I think it is getting to be less so, though. The last couple of nights I seem to have woken up less often during the night, and I've gotten back to sleep faster. I haven't been feeling too overheated, either, which is also a good sign.

The Meh: Irritability and tension. Not sure this is really a side effect, though. When I went to 40mg Vyvanse I experienced something similar, though I remember it being much more acute. As I mused at the time, it could just be that I am unused to remaining focussed on my problems. Being unable to distract oneself from them, after many years of doing so, is bound to be a stressful experience.
