This is sort of a tangent, but my question is this: How does one ask for higher doses of a controversial drug without being perceived as engaging in "drug-seeking behavior?" For example, I feel that my 30mgs of Ritalin a day is simply not quite enough, yet I fear that if I ask for a higher dose, the doc will become suspicious. I read in Answers to Distraction that some people require 60-80 mgs a day. I think my doctor will misperceive me as being a stimulant fiend, when I actually think I just require more.
