Stimulants Those who dose ritalin, what's your program? Appropriate single dose of IR?

Am I correct in saying opioid potentiates the DA effect of stims like ritalin?

Recreationally, cocaine with opioids like heroin is known as "speedball"?

Is ritalin with oxycodone or codeine basically a pharmaceutical version of speedball?

The recreational version is thought to be quite dangerous/toxic.



But as I understand it, the up effect of the stimulant is countered by the down effect of the opioid, and the combination DA effect makes it quite intoxicating?

The pharma version, ritalin + oxy/codeine, may be safer and sustainable to dose I guess.
 
After about 3 weeks of daily 40 mg, I tried bumping to 50 mg in a divided dose of 30 then 20, 45 minutes later.

That slight stagger seems to take the edge off.

I can tolerate it just fine now but I'm not sure it's necessarily better.

All immediate release formulation.

From what I gather, ritalin users don't necessarily develop a tolerance to its effects but the initial euphoria of sorts of sharp mood elevation, might seem slightly more benign or less impactful with repeated use.
 
Also crushing ritalin and inhaling talc?

I read concerning things such as how it can basically cause alveoli necrosis.

Wouldn't it be safter just doing cocaine?
 
I thought after three weeks of daily dosing tolerance was emerging, so I skipped dosing at all yesterday.

Wow.

When you need this stuff you need it, cause it was the most horrific evening and night I've had in a while.

What I'd been doing was dosing 30 mg, waiting 30 minutes that topping it up to 40 mg.

That had been working very well but ultimately stopped having the same impact.

So I just dosed 40 mg straight today and.......... sweet relief and bliss;

It's interesting how dosing the entire amount at one time makes such a dramatic difference.

Seriously curious how anyone can tolerate more than 40 mg at one time without jitters/anxiety, but perhaps as tolerance evolves higher doses become preferred?
