I have 20mg tablets of SZ 780 Ritalin. I have taken one 20 mg pill at about 4: 30 orally and was wondering if there is a better way. I was thinking about snorting it but I have no idea on how to do it or what amount I should take after already ingesting 20 Mg. I also have had a few beers or does that not even matter. I am enjoying experimenting with ritalin but am wondering what is the best route to get a solid buzz goin and how much is safe. all help is appreciated. I was also wondering if taken orally how many MG's I can take in a certain time span to achieve a buzz.
Well, individual sensitivity will vary from person to person, but 20mg orally is not a very large amount IMO. How do you feel? If you only got mild effects from 20mg, then go ahead and take more. Taking too much methylphenidate is very uncomfortable though, so be careful about how much you take. keep in mind, what goes up must come down. The more you take in a session means the greater the comedown you will feel when you decide to stop.
A couple of beers shouldn't negatively affects things, but it's not wise to go all out with the alcohol. Drinking and stimulants both can cause dehydration individually. You have to be doubly careful when using both to maintain proper fluid intake. Also, the hangover from too much alcohol+speed is truly ungodly. You've been warned!
About snorting: methylphenidate is one of the few drugs that has actual advantages to insufflation IMO. Snorting Ritalin actually feels kinda like (low quality) cocaine to me. It's noticeably more potent when snorted, ~2x for me, but it only lasts about half the time as oral use. The comeup and comedown from snorting are pretty abrupt though, you will go very quickly from feeling high to crashing.
about dosing: to catch a buzz, I find snorting 20-30mg to be about right and ~50 mg for oral use.
A rule of thumb with stimulants in general; it's best to take a decent dose in one go than to take little amounts incrementally. There are always diminishing returns to re-dosing with stimulants. After a certain amount of time has passed since your initial dose, no amount will bring back the initial euphoria.
