Snorting Ritalin- Am I doing it right?

[mayday mayday]

A year ago, I was prescribed Ritalin. Right now I am taking 15 mg of Ritalin every day. But taking it orally just spaces me out to the point that I just stare at walls. So I tried snorting it and that was it. I never took another pill again. At first I was snorting about 50 mg at night but now I am up to 200 mg. I tend to do it with a starting dose of 30 mg - 40 mg followed by doses of 10 mg - 15 mg - 20 mg - 30 mg alternately depending on what I feel like, about every 20 or 40 minutes, and this spans out over the course of about 7 hours. I do this three days a month (sorry if my math is off I've been awake forever). Meanwhile I am always working on something. It does well for me in this respect. The only thing is, there comes a point when it's not working anymore and I still want to do more but I know its a waste. And then there are the ups and downs and the discouragement. When it gets bad and I force myself to accept that it's over, I drink some beer and maybe snort some xanax and I'm alright. Well, my head is screwed up but I just go to sleep.
Further experiences have shown that I now have a tremendous tolerance to amphetamines. I mean the bad shit and somehow I have a tolerance to it. I just find it strange.

So, are my methods dangerous? Is there anything I should know? All I know is what I read on the internet and I haven't heard of anyone doing it like I do or as much as I do.
Thanks for your time.

Snorting methylphenidate (Ritalin) a lot will raise your stimulant tolerance pretty quick. Quicker than using it orally (just swallowing the pills vs. snorting them). You'll notice with stimulants after a certain point you really are just wasting drugs. Finding that point is up to you. If you haven't slept in a while that won't help you. Get sleep every day and make sure you're eating enough and staying hydrated. If you continue to redose your tolerance will just go up even higher. If you want your tolerance to drop, you have to take a break.

And for what its worth, snorting Xanax (or any benzo) is a waste. Xanax is most effective when used orally or administered sublingually (put it under your tongue and let it dissolve).

Thank you very much. I like the feeling of snorting xanax but it doesn't seem to last very long. I will try it under the tongue next time. That's how I take klonopin too.
Thanks again.
