I have to disagree with you, at least to some extent. You're correct -- Adderall is a pill, and pills are meant to be swallowed. However, we both know that there are other methods of ingestion that range in how common they are, and with drugs like Adderall, using the drug intranasally is very common; I personally don't enjoy it and would rather just eat it.
But regardless of how drugs are meant to be taken, if we're using them recreationally, we're breaking the rules no matter what. Taking enough pills to get high from them is just as against what those pills are "created for" as ingesting pills in ways other than swallowing them is. So, you're right; Adderall and other pills weren't created to be taken non-orally, but they also weren't created to be used recreationally. So let's just assume that we're already breaking the rules to one extent or another, and that short of making our drug use more dangerous than it already is, the particulars of how we use certain drugs really aren't too important.
It's known that (with many drugs), snorting them is more effective than eating them, taking them rectally is more effective than snorting them, and injecting them is more effective than plugging them. Ingesting ecstasy rectally can increase effects so much that it's comparable to the difference between eating one pill, and eating two. Of course, not all drugs work the same way, but if ecstasy and certain other drugs (pills or otherwise) can be taken rectally, what's wrong with wondering about Adderall, or any other drug? If someone's going to use a drug, anyway, and they can find a way to do it that gives twice the effects without requiring them to take more of the drug(s) and doesn't present serious health risks (additional to those already present), why shouldn't they?
A lot of people have issues with the idea of using drugs rectally; some people just can't imagine doing it themselves, some people can't handle anyone doing it, for whatever reasons. I don't understand what the big deal is -- it's science. If you have $20 to spend to get high, and you can use that $20 in a way that will give you a high worth $30-40 or even more, why the hell wouldn't you?? It doesn't make you gay (not implying you meant that, but I've heard people say that). It's not gross, provided you're sanitary about it. It isn't painful if you do it properly. So if it's not disgusting, and it doesn't hurt, and it gives you more pleasure... please, explain to me why people who use drugs that way are "wrong" for doing it.
I used to be squeamish about the idea, until I tried it and had one of the most intense ecstasy experiences of my life. I'm perfectly willing to stick my finger up my *own butt* if it means that I can make two pills feel like four, not to mention that by not taking the drug orally, a lot of the nausea and similar effects can be lessened if not eradicated.
Even if you think it's gross or whatever, don't knock it if you've never done it. We're all recreational drug users to some extent (or most of us are, anyway); as long as we're all striving to be informed and as safe as possible, I don't think anyone here should raise an issue with how anyone else here does things... I'm sure there's a lot of drug-related things people do that I would find as wrong/absurd as you find anal drug use to be, but live and let live, you know?
If I sound rude in this post, I don't mean to at all; I'm just genuinely curious as to the train of thought that led you to post what you did, when in fact you didn't really help. That's not meant to be insulting, but I asked if Adderall was effective and safe (safe meaning as safe as it can be used recreationally) to use rectally; I want to know if it works, and if anyone can share experiences, great. You posted with the opinion that drugs shouldn't be used that way, and as fact you posted "it would be most effective... gelcap and swallow it", when that statement is simply not a fact. It's simple fact that drugs vary in strength and duration depending on, among other factors, method of ingestion, and eating a drug is *never* going to be the most effective from that standpoint, when pretty much any other method of ingestion (snorting, plugging, shooting) gets more drug into the bloodstream and doesn't need to be digested and partially ruined in the stomach. To be sure, some people *prefer* eating Adderall over snorting it, or any other example, but speaking solely from a factual standpoint, "parachuting" a pill is not going to produce the most effects, so maybe you should consider saying that *you* think the best method is to parachute the pills, and that *you* think that taking drugs rectally is wrong, instead of posting it as though it's all factual.
Again, no hard feelings; it just inspired me to speak honestly (and lengthily; sorry).
