Ok, I went from a 200mg daily ritalin habit to 30mg a day for 5 days and went to a detox facility for another week(recommended by my neurologist). I got out last Thursday and the moment I came out I had the urge to snort something. Got some from a friend. Up until tyesterday I snorted about 60 - 80 mg daily. This morning I took 300mg Wellbutrin and 40mg ritalin left for the day. I have 2 more 40mg LA left which I obviously crush. Tomorrow I get a script for provigil. Will it help for not feeling too tired. I can't tell anyone,my husband and parents told me it was the last hop for me. I am afraid my husband will take custody of my 4 year old. Any advice? Thanks for reading.
 
if you may lose your kids over a drug, then its time to tell yourself you're an addict and get some help for it. you need to get your priorities in check and take care of the kid first and foremost. thats my advice.
 
For real your gonna lose your kid over fuckin methylphendate? Just suck that shit up and be glad your not addicted to meth or heroin or some real nasty shit to come off of. But enough preaching to answer your question the provigil will help but feeling tired for a couple weeks should be pretty managable get some red bulls if shit gets drastic.
 
Seriously GET HELP get off fucking ADD drugs and worry about your kids!
 
You're kid is on the line. I realize addiction is a sickness but some things are more important. Get the help you need and deserve so you can give your CHILD the life he/she needs and deserves. Kids come first.

I am on pain meds daily for pain management. I am also a user. However I don't allow my using to interfere with my child or my parenting. I don't even allow my child to see my medication or me taking it. Seriously go get some help, you will be much happier for it. I wish you the best of luck. All your kid wants is "mommy", dont take that away from he/she.

i'm sorry to hear about your situation. luckily, i can help because i too have had (and still do) struggles with perscription drugs(including stimulants) and many street drugs. provigil will help with withdrawls, but it is a stimulant that increases dopamine and possibly the "reward" center of your brain(may lead to increase in drug cravings). luckily, it's not really an addictive stimulant like ritalin and if you use it wisely it can help push the monkey off your back.

remember your family-is ritalin really more important than a kid growing up thinking his mother was an addict? use the provigil to get you off the ritalin, caffiene also helps stimulant withdrawl.

lifes much better on the other side, trust me. i hope things work out and if you have any questions you can send me a PM(personal message).:)
 
STOP taking ritalin NOW, it's that simple, that shit isn't even an opiate that will cause physical withdrawal so it should only be mental cravings not painful withdrawal, so you really should QUIT NOW, oh and by the way if ANYONE ever ATTEMPTED to take my kid away for ANY reason whatsoever drugs or not, I would shoot them dead in their tracks, and that includes dss and police, if they came to my door I would slam it in their face and tell them to fuck themselves, if the police came and tried, they would have to kill me, because I wouldnt say a word I would just start shooting.

stopping now with snorting ritalin isn't that simple. being addicted to snorting ritalin is just like having a coke habit. the cravings can be severe(pretty much one of the WORST drug cravings out there, the mental agony can easily take over) and relapse is extremely likely with out getting proper help.

What you said B.

Stay sedated, I got over coke addiction before I got married because I knew kids would be the next thing. This person can get over ritalin. I was force fed ritalin from kindergarden until I was old enough to sell it instead of take it. I didn't give a fuck I had no cravings whatsoever. Frankly I think methylphenidate is junk. I also quit coke cold turkey. Sure there's cravings, infact I still have them and its been YEARS. But, I am off of it.

well thats you, not everybody can quit so easily. everybody's different when it comes to addiction.
