I have a below-knee amputation. I AM dependent on my prosthesis to get around. lol

That's the thing I especially liked about the ritalin - no waiting days for it to get to a working level, it kicked in, worked, and when it was gone, it was GONE. heh. Which meant I could take it when I wanted to get stuff done, and if I didn't care about getting stuff done, I could refrain from taking it, and that worked perfectly.

And the zombie thing - I'd almost said - but I realized after my experiences on it.... yeah, kid might look like a zombie because instead of being distracted by everything, they're sitting there concentrating on their work, getting shit done. Not staring-into-space zombie, GETTING-SHIT-DONE-POWERHOUSE lol.
