Who has tried Ritalin? Share your experience!

[lukaaaa]

I'm very happy that on ritalin the only thing I experienced was appetite loss, it made me much calmer than I usually am and significantly less stressed and anxious. For me it was a silver bullet to the struggle of just *doing* and I'm super happy about it.

I just got out on methylphenidate er concerta. I got put on 18mg. The next month went to 36 and it didn’t last as long. So my doctor put me on 10mg at 4pm about 6 hours after my first dose and it has helped amazingly.

[theslowedbabe]

I am on the extended release version, but even that lasts me roughly around 5, sometimes 6 hours. Instead of having a booster dose later, I was prescribed the extended release both morning and afternoon. It works wonders! I only experience mild sideffects when the medication gradually stops working. Other than that, my body takes it pretty well

[andrewlewiscameras]

Well done, excellent video. Very comprehensive 👍

A girl had trouble focusing had work. Told her to go to a doctor. Gave her 1 pill after 10 minutes she work better than the worker.
She listened to me and went to a doctor

Going to ask my doctor if I can try this. Tried wellbutrin, for adhd, and it made me absolutely manic!!

[grominwithrob]

I switched from 18mg of Concerta twice a day to 5mg of Ritalin twice a day. The crash I feel on Ritalin is horrible. It’s fall asleep sitting up crash. I felt the Concerta but it was so much smoother. The Ritalin also makes me a jerk and easily angered, but unable to let go. The Concerta made it super easy to transition in tasks and emotions. The Ritalin makes it so I can’t transition in work or emotions. It was far easier to be happy on Concerta. I meet with my doctor tomorrow morning before work. I just hope I can go back to Concerta and maybe increase my dose a little bit. 🙏

I was just prescribed this from my doctor & im nervous to take it. I got it Thursday.

[McEddyOfficial]

So I went to see a PD and she prescribed me Ritalin and told me to start from 25 mg a day (5-5-5-10) and then add 15 more milligrams each day until I reach 70 milligrams a day (day 4). So as I started taking my meds like that I almost instantly lost my appetite, had trouble to fall asleep then it was worse, I had anxiety attack (never had one before). After seeing my PD once again in 14 days, we agreed I will do another try because I was in stress from my work and that could be the problem. So yeah, today I reached 60 milligrams, had depression, dark thoughts and some other things. Tachycardia, my asthma kicked in... Not sure if Ritalin is the right choice for me, becase I've never felt so close to losing my mind. I want to try something non-stimulant based so let's see.

Can the rash i get on my calves be because histamine release

[mikeysironrage]

No way i was in Ritalin LA for 3 years and it always lasts Atleast 12 hours if u Google ritalin it says it could last up to 14 hours

[normsoule]

My doctor gives it to me for anxiety and depression Concerta

[loczster]

I was just prescribed methylphenidate tablet. One 18mg/per day.
52 yrs old male.
I haven't noticed anything. I did just start. In week 3, so not sure if I should reach out to my doctor to see if that is normal or if you need to increase.

[regaliaspot]

Does it increases risk of heart attack or has adverse effects on heart

[tuanhua]

I’m taking Ritalin. Wrote poetry book. Made a support group on facebook.

[与子]

I couldn't find anything on psychotic romantic episodes. very curious, because it sounds possibly familiar. could you share anything about it?

[Tomangel]

I'm 61 and I had add when I was a kid which became bipolar disorder later on. I still wish I had something that could help me focus. I'm not sure I could take ritalin again without it spiking my blood pressure as well.

[tuanhua]

Everyone is different when he/she on it!
