godessgrl65,
In the morning I take 100mg Zoloft, 10mg Adderall, Risperdal, and Requip, and start feeling really sleepy after a couple of hours. I race home for a nap at lunch most days (hmmm...I guess I could lock the door to my office and just roll under the desk...).
I take an optional 5mg of Ritalin in the afternoon, which, like you described, calms me and gives me focus. I usually forget to take it, however, so by 4 o'clock my "overactive imagination" is running wild, which is probably why I've been described quite a few times in the last 50 years as "nice, but crazy."
BTW, I take Zoloft, Risperdal, Clomipramine, and Requip at night.
For me, the Zoloft scatters my thinking and the Adderall feeds my OCD-ness. But I've stuck with them for awhile now, and think they give me just enough of edge to allow me to win sometimes in the struggle for control over my thoughts and emotions.
I hope that makes sense and doesn't sound too "out there."
Goodnight for now.
