I've been thinking of getting back on meds to help concentrate more since I plan to take a Comptia certs course and exam. I've been doing somethings to improve my focus without meds but I really want to get my act together and actually do something with my life. I used to take Concerta when I was in middle and high school and it did improve my focus in class. The only major downside I faced was loss of appetite. Since I've been off meds, I've heard of people taking Adderall which piqued my interest but I don't how it differs from Concerta. What do you guys think? Thanks in advance.

No one here will be able to say what's best for you, this is something you need to figure out with a doctor.
