Smoking Concerta doesn't get you high
Well, it seems no one has exactly answered this thread's question, so I will. Smoking Concerta does nothing, in my experience. I did this one time. I prepared a light bulb, sawed open the pill, removed the TWO shells it has, and melted it down. First of all, it seems to have a rather high melting point. Second, it didn't completely break down into vapor. There was no noticeable effect, other than a brief headache. I would venture to guess that the methylphenidate didn't vaporize, but the inactive ingredients (whatever those are) did. I might have given a second try, to see if the rest of it would vaporize, but the headache steered me clear.
Needless to say that was the last time I tried that. I broke the lightbulb against an ashtray over the garbage can and never bothered with the stuff again. For the record, I would say methylphenidate is a waste of time. I am no chemist, but I'm sure the drug could be broken down into it's precursors (?) and then maybe the stuff would be of some use. People have a method for separating cocaine from it's base, and then they have crack, right? So probably possible. Likely a waste of time.
Adderal seems more abusable and that's likely why you hear a lot about that and not the Ritalin. My feeling is that if you want to do speed, get some speed. Oh, and, may I suggest NOT smoking it. Smoking meth is fun, killer high, but man, it's hydrochloric (?) and will ruin youd teeth and lungs in short order.
I prefer being straight to being high. A good cup of Caffeine can do just as good if not get you as high. Take Care.
