bad stuff right there

i was on ritalin from when I was 11 until 16...it is the reason i can't grow hair

One thing they don't tell parents when prescribing those types of ADD meds is that 1 in 2 children will develop a nervous tick for the rest of their lives, and the longer they are on the meds the worse the tick gets...my tick was twirling a lock of hair in the front right side of my head...so when I grow hair, the minute it is long enough to play with, I twirl it....and i can't stop, it is very obsessive, and ritalin is the cause

there are some cases of extreme ticks, such as arm spasms, and even more rare cases of turrets

Someday.. I don't have any immediate plans of making the drive. I'll give it some thought. I have some things I would like to get out of the way then maybe I'll come into town.
