Hey guys
I've never done anything other than weed, but my friend has gotten hold of a month's supply of Ritalin for me. I intend to use it as a study aid mainly, and I have no access to it after the supply is up, so I'm not worried about getting a Ritalin addiction.
I'm getting it at 15:00 today, and then meeting with a friend at college to do some studying at 18:00. Is there anything I should know apart from the basics? So far I know the following:
>Make sure you're already studying when it takes effect
>Don't think you'll go to sleep any time soon after taking it
>Don't forget to eat
What else?

Bed time doesn't really matter atm, I'm on study leave.
What would the best timing look like?
bump 'cause it's nearly tiiiiiime
have some gum on stand by
tooth grinding can get out of hand if you end up overdosing a bit.

I'd take it in the morning around 8 or 9. Every time I took it around 1-3 p.m. it robbed me of my sleep in the night. When you take it it will take like 1 hour to kick in and you'll have the effect of more concentration and energy for 4 hours. That's what I learned with about 15 tablets of ritalin
i remember in the 60's and 70's when everyone was taking mind expanding drugs. now its all pills. no wonder the new generation of kids is fucked.

HCL?
I took it about 5 hours ago, did work for four hours solidly, blocked internet access to 4chan and reddit and fb, all was well. Doing same tomorrow, but gonna take 1.5 pills instead of 1. Come down is so far okay.

>HCl
If you see that on the label, that's short for hydrochloric acid. The generic for Ritalin is methylphenidate hydrochloric acid.
What's the strength of the tablet? Are you staying on the lowest dose on the label or just deciding for yourself?

I think they're 15mg. A friend had 2 and said it was a bit much for him, so I'm gonna try 22.5mg and just split one in half tomorrow.
