There are two possible methylphenidate highs for me - ones where I am happy and go through the comedown easily, and ones where I am anxious for parts of the high (usually the end) and the comedown kills me. My usual dose is 36-90 oral, and 10-25 sublingual or snorted. These are the side effects that bother me most.
In all highs: dry mouth. When I'm on this, I like to talk, and cotton mouth gets in the way of that. It's also very uncomfortable after the high wears off.
Also, the thing that usually triggers anxiety is being left alone after being with someone. Then, I'm prone to redosing. And when I'm anxious, I don't sleep. Usually I can sleep a few hours at night if I prevent the anxiety.
Any ways to fight that? Mainly the second, because that's the one that actually hurts - but don't underestimate how annoying cotton mouth can be...
