I know there are other threads about this drug but I wanted to add my own basic experience/rant.
I am currently taking 100 Sertraline, tw round purplish tablet mood stabiliser things my psychiatrist prescribed and some Quetiapine

On Sunday night at about 7pm I downed two 56mg tablets of Ritalin and half an hour later I smoked two cones, and decided fuck it and downed the other three 56mg tabs of Ritalin. This was my first time using CNS drugs and you probably guessed it, from 8pm to around 7am I didn?t stop chattering and talking and texting for even a minute. I talked to my family until they were literally in their bed saying goodnight and trying to get me to leave. I had two big cones at around 8am and it was amazing the best high ever, all night my thoughts were extremely clear and I had no anxiety and I was able to clearly socialise how I wanted to and share my ideas without fear of persecution. When I had the weed it felt like meth or something it was like getting blazed x100. Anyways I fell sleep at 7 woke up at midnight and I remember getting like a good 8 hours of sleep.

Anyway yesterday was fine I went out to a smoke shop my mate gave me 4 tabs of 36mg Ritalin for free and anyways at the end of the night I finished all my weed I had a small cone every few minutes for what seemed like hours and I must have smoked like 3 grams I?m not sure.

THE POINT OF THIS POST is that I woke up in the PM of Wednesday and got up around 2 and slowly I fell into this excruciating hell of depression, anxiety, hopelessness. It started out as a crippling depression that affected me so bad to the point that I couldn?t even reach over in my bed and get my phone. As the sun set the torment strengthened and the suicidal ideologies were full blown. I read up and found out other people had experienced the same with this drug and I finally had an explanation. Today is definitely not as bad as yesterday but I quit drugs forever last night because I never wanted to feel that way again. Would marijuana be safe for me again? What about drugs like acid/lsd? I haven?t tried it yet but I finally have a source and hope to get my hands on some when someone gets some and I have access... which I?ve missed out on twice in a few weeks cos of bad luck.
 
To clarify, is Ritalin not prescribed and you're taking it recreationally? You might have smoked a little too much weed or all those meds together may be have contributed to your awful depression.
 
Did you quit all your drugs even seroquel and antidepressant???
 
Tried methylphenidate on its own and experienced little effects....but in combination with my prescribed (at the time) SSRI Citalopram....produced a wild fuckin' ride....was go go GO and feeling amazing for several hours, but jittery as all hell....the comedown/crash....HOLY SHIT was that hell...worse than methamp, possibly amp and coke....

But came out of it just the same, and I'm sure you will as well.... The effects you describe are the rebound effects typically associated with psychostimulant abuse....if you're gonna play around with stims, you best be prepared to pay that price....and trust me, it could be much worse...

Good call on ceasing substance abuse for the time being, and I'd simply advise you stay away from stimulants if you don't like that.

You mention LSD.....at the very least, I feel obligated to very strongly warn you against combining it (or any psychs, for that matter) with any stimulants....don't be a moron.

For hangover from Ritalin you can take 1mg alprazolam with some weed. Other option is to take mucuna pruriens extract which contains l-dopa so produces higher levels of dopamine in the brain. Too you can take kanna
