I have 600x 10mg ritalin and 100x 5mg dex. Is that enough to CTB? I saw previous threads saying that it's a painful way to go but that's all I have.

The odds of vomiting your pills, enduring significant pain, and then having a seizure that you may recover fully from or end up with permanent disability is much greater than your odds of successfully ctb. I wouldn't recommend this method.

Aggregate data on drug poisonings suggests that when all drug types are considered it is about 1.5% effective for ctb. The aggregate data includes drugs more reliable than ritalin so the odds specific to ritalin & dexedrine are probably significantly lower than 1.5%.

Generally speaking dexedrine and methylphenidate (the drug in ritalin) are not considered very lethal according to population studies even though they carry a high potential for serious/painful cardiac emergencies in high doses. Stimulant overdose deaths usually occur in people with years of stimulant abuse whose hearts are already failing, and even then many of them die slowly while in hospital.

It's not impossible but you're playing the lottery against high odds of being rendered incapacitated, in greater pain, and unable to ctb using more peaceful methods.

I would really recommend not going this way. I know it's hard right now, but please don't do this. I don't want to encourage you to just harm yourself in what is most likely going to be a meaningless effort. Do you mind if I DM you?

Thank you, I'm not doing it now but I just stacked so much of my meds and I'm really thinking about it. I don't mind if you DM'ed me.

Sounds like an unreliable and extremely painful method. Besides. From my personally experience, ritalin was a reason to keep existing. My only recommendation is to take just enough to enjoy the ride. Do something productive. Write a story. Exercise. Socialize. Ritalin is not ideal for CTB. Probably the opposite
