I've started taking Ritalin at 15mg a day but felt that ,although I was concentrated it did not feel like it was enough.So I boosted dosage to 30mg but had a lot of bad side effects depression anxiety etc, went back down to 15mg and now I feel like it is not working at all, Any help would be appreciated as I have big exams coming up soon and i cannot keep my attention up

Try talking to your dr maybe switch medications. I was on concerta for a month and felt it had absolutely no effect on me. I take Vyvanse now and it seems to work much better
