Is there any issue with taking concerta for a week without a prescription. Everyday 36mg Concerta. Not to get high, purely for focus.

I have a stimulant tolerance so not worried about anything like that. Just wondering if a week of continuous use is straining on the brain? And if so how can I replenish whatever I have depleted next week. (I believe it is something to do with dopamine uptake receptors) But all the research I've found is too technical. If anyone with any experience could dumb it down for me I would be grateful.

Thanks
