Method Generic Ritalin overdose as a method?

[ambroxan]

I know that generally using prescription medication is a very poor means to ctb, but what would a Ritalin overdose look like? I have about 3 months worth of 20mg instant release Ritalin sitting around, If 60 mg can send someone into a hospital inducing overdose, then could consuming double that allow me to ctb (albeit a very painful way to go out)?

is it prescribed to you?

60mg is nothing for the purpose you are thinking of. the only thing it will do is to get you more on edge. limited amounts will lift your alertness to that of what a normal person probably feels. a little more might get you close to high, but not really if that makes sense. if you take 10mg too much for instance, the first day will feel kind of high, but within 2-3 days, you will no longer notice it. if you take too many, it just makes you more anxious in a way. it is a weird feeling and not really what i assume most people would like to have. you do not want to sit still, and your mind and eyes will be darting back and forth

Yeah it's prescribed to me, I have so much of it because I don't like having to take it in general. I become actively suicidal rather than passively suicidal when I have to take it.

It will probably just lead to panic, vomiting, shaking, seizures, and heart rhythm problems… you will stay conscious and terrified but likely won't die. The body can survive a lot of stimulant toxicity.

then i assume that it will not work for the purpose you want it to

have you tried dexamphetimine. i was on ritalin for 15 years and it is a wonder drug, but i found that when i went to higher dosages, it was giving me a queasy feeling and making my heart beat so much faster when doing anything at all that resembled exercise

i find that dexamphetamine is much more gentle than ritalin. while it might have been a placebo type affect, i seemed to be able to feel when ritalin kicked in, and also the drop off seemed to be worse. the dexamphetamine works great for me, but i do not feel when it actually kicks in outside of not being so tired, and it doesn't seem to drop off quite so much either

I haven't tried dexamphetamine yet, right now I can't get any new prescriptions written out because I can't afford to have health insurance anymore.

You answered your own question.

This is said not just because they are unpleasant, but because they very often do not work. You are more likely to get sick and survive.
