In reply to Ritalin: dosage question, posted by Francesco on October 18, 2003, at 10:35:02
It isn't all that high. People often start out at 20mg twice a day. It depends a bit on how big you are and how well you tolerate it. It is a subjective thing. But you will sure feel it. Ritalin is pure speed and not all that subtle. I like it for depression, especially in the short term. Some people aren't comfortable being juiced up like that though. Try it, it won't hurt you. You can take less or go slower if you need to. Those pills are very breakable for fine tuning dosages. It is a very short acting med, keep your eyes open for rebound. You can feel sort of wrung out and irritable when it wears off.
