I H A T E ethylphenidate with a passion. It gives me a terribly jittery high followed by a crash that includes extreme shortness of breath and heart palpitations. Other stimulants do not cause this type of comedown for me. 8(

How does methylphenidate (Ritalin) compare in that department? If you've tried both, which do you prefer and why? I'd like to try methyl but am scared it will cause a freakout.
 
I don't prefer either. Ethyl gave me a nasty bodyload & the high was short-lived & lacklustre. MPH doesn't give me too much bodyload (compared to amphetamine e.g.) & again the high is rather lacklustre.
 
Thanks! I know it's impossible to predict how I'll respond, but the feedback is helpful. If I try it, it will be in a low dose for sure. The ethylphenidate bodyload is just unacceptable.
 
It really is--completely ruined the chemical for me. I'd stay away from MPH unless it's super cheap & easy to obtain; it's not got a whole lot going for it either imo.

No problem, dude.
 
Some people say it's great, some people say its shit. I got some that was supposed to be here today but it's not. Where da fuck is my package? I wanna try this shit myself then I'll tell you whether its good or not. ;)
 
To my mind MPH shits all over EPH. I used to abuse the shit out of MPH in High School, used to hook a couple kids who were prescribed loads of the shit up with cigs and weed on the regular, as a result could sniff pretty much as much as I wanted of this shit every day. I used to get 10mg tablets and 40mg capsules as well as I believe 36mg controlled release tabs/Concerta. I always found snorting it was the best ROA, but it helped to take a moderate dose orally before sniffing lines to give it better legs and a little more euphoria. To me MPH is probably the most similar drug to cocaine that I ever tried, but I have only really used it a few times since High School and they were all shortly afterward. Perhaps with the amount of ice I have smoked it would be less enjoyable now, that said, I used a fair bit of speed and dexamphetamine before I ever tried ritalin and it did a lot for me then.

I got some EPH last year or the year before, maybe it was a shit batch, I don't know. It came as clear crystals and I had to crush them to make it a suitable consistency to snort, the substance had a pretty significant burn when snorted, not the worst I have encountered but definitely not pleasant or mild. I found it to be less than impressive, the stimulation it gave me was relatively short lived, but I felt like some of the mental stimulation would outlast the physical side of things and I would be feeling lethargic but my mind still racing a little, it made me want to redose before the last dose wore off and it seemed to result in a pretty sketched out feeling as the last few doses were wearing off. It wasn't a terrible chemical, I mean I did finish the bag, but I got it incredibly cheaply (for drugs in this country any way) and was not in any way tempted to purchase more. It has some use, but I suspect it would probably be best dosed orally and as a stimulant for functioning as opposed to using recreationally, where I actually found methylphenidate to be really good socially and recreationally as well as for functioning.
 
I have tried ethylphenidate a couple of times by means of ingesting methylphenidate and a couple of wine glasses. It increased my anxiety (and MPH itself gives me a lot of anxiety) to the point I had to make use of the emergency benzo (Xanax) I keep on my wallet.

With regards to methylphenidate, it will give me a good high for 30 mins, this high being I want to get shit done and I hyper concentrate on trivial stuff. Then the crash comes after one hour and I can only describe it as "having a warm comfy bath in your bath tub and suddenly having the warm water go away and be as the bath tub feels with cold water". I have to take a benzo to get out of that sudden dark side.

I have also inhaled MPH but it makes the anxiety even worse. The only time I got something out of inhaling MPH was the first time I did it like that when it felt like a good line of coke. Never after the first time have I repeated that sublime effect with MPH, whether it was inhaled or taken orally, big doses or staying away from the drug to reduce tolerance. I stay away from it because I don't want to get hooked on benzos as taking benzos is the only way I can tolerate MPH even with clinical doses.

My 50 cent.
