for the past 2 or 2 and a half months or so i've been using ritalin quite often. maybe 3 times a week on average, doses from anywhere to 50-150mg a day of the LR sometimes mixed with snorting the IR ones i have as well. i'm prescribed and i really do need to take it sometimes to get shit done but i am clearly abusing it.
its calmed down recently but i want to stop completely for a little while.
i take 2 full day breaks between doses most of the time, but lately when i do that i'm just kind of off and dont feel 100% when i'm taking that break. so i guess those are withdrawals.
at the point im at now would it be best if i just stop cold turkey, or since i have the 4 hour 10mg IR tablets should i do a mini taper starting at 15-20mg throughout the day (swallowed not snorted), and then gradually taber off over the course of 10 days - 2 weeks?
