Substance/Dose Exp Level "19 years Non Stop"
I used to snort 250mg a day for a few months, oral never did anything other than give me insomnia and, paradoxically, a far worse comedown.
Isn't the nasal BA around 20-30% higher than oral?
After reading these threads on "snorting methylphenidate" it has been a learning curve for me. Yes, as I titled my comments, I
was given a DX of ADHD in the year 1994, at age 43, and, I have been on brick and mortar prescribed stimulants, the past 19 years, with
only three (3) breaks beyond 24 hours, 3 days, in 1999, 15 days, in 2006, and 17 days, this year (January). Yes, I have now passed my
62nd birthday, am a 6"1" 205 lb w/m, divorced, no children, with 2 college degrees, and am semi retired. Live in SE USA the past 19 years,
have always gotten my meds from one of (now) 4 Psychiatrists. (Ritalin I/R 20mg x 3) 1994 to 1996. Dexedrine 15mg Spansule ER + Dexedrine
Sulfate 5 mg E-19 orange hearts @ 6 tabs a day, total 45 mg of d-amphetamine, then 1999 to 2009, switched to Dexedrine 15mg Spansule +
10mg of Adderall @1PM and 5PM my final switch was in year 2010, Generic I/R Barr Adderall 10mg @9AM Noon and 3PM. (30 mg total)
I confess, since I got divorced, and live alone, I had stored away in tight bottles, up to 10 yrs ago, Brand Richwood, or ShireUS Adderall 10mg,
and even 100 of the 5 mg Smith Kline Beechham Dexedrine E-19 hearts, and have experimented with snorting these I/R tablets. I concluded the
5mg pure Dexedrine, has a waxy matrix, in the formula, that sticks to one's mucous membranes in one's nose, and, thus I figure I have wasted
about 1/2 of the dose, including my newer prescribed 10mg I/R generic Adderall 10mg. The old Richwood Brand Adderall, I get more out of it, but
I still lose 1/3 of it in my nostrils, as it sticks to the membranes, and I figure goes no further.
In my 20's I snorted Cocaine, for two years, and I remember, no residue, in my nose, unless, I got on a "Run" of doing it every day, for maybe 5
days + and I had a stopped up nose. Most recently, the past 4 years, I have also been snorting a narcotic, from either Canada, or Europe, known,
as Talwin, or Fortral, or Sosegon, and, became very addicted to that, from self administration, always, grinding it up, and never any sticky residue in
my nose. My IOP suppliers no longer stock it and this month started snorting pure OxyContin 40mg,. in 1/4 doses at a time. I am out and I am afraid
of mixing Oxycodone, with Adderall (oral). I also, from a local source, had access to 5/325 generic Percocets, I took one a day for the past 5 years,
whenever, I was temporarily out of 100% pure Pentazocine without any "naloxone". Why? Self Pity, and self administration of meds for what I perceive
as a stubborn Depression, and I have been previously been given a DX as Depression Resistant to SSRI's, and SNRI's all failed me all of my life.
I have tried to get off of all legitimate "amphetamines" and all I do is sleep, and go into a Worse Depression, and my M.D only suggests, to try to
taper down 5 mg per year. Every Psychiatrist I have ever seen told me I was a textbook case of ADD, and Mood Disorder NOS combined.
I love the instant rush, of uppers, when snorted. That is why this thread I found interesting. Never heard of the process, used in the kitchen, as
described. At this time, I may stick with oral use, as I have too much of a addictive personality.
The doses I have read used by some members of "Ritalin" blows my mind..............................not judging anyone too harshly, but, I get too high
wired, if I take more than 60 mg of I/R original Ritalin, or, more than say 45 to 50mg of d-amphetamine, orally. If I get too high wired, I crave
Klonopin, Valium, or some weed, to calm down. My psychiatrists, will only prescribe me tiny amounts of Klonopin, or 10 years he gave me only
Ambien to wind down, he will not give me any heavier doses of benzo's, My use of pain killers has been my secret since my 2007 divorce, very
addictive stuff, European Fortral, or USA Oxycodone! However, I have acquired much success, with taking ADD meds when I first started, in money
and acquiring possessions, unfortunately, my marriage of 12 years to a RN, who also has serious Depression, failed.
Be careful with those 90mg+ doses of methylphenidate. I am new to "this forum" if I have broken any rules, moderators, just erase or modify my
comments.
