yes, i was trying to boost prozac with ritalin.
i'd only taken one 5 or 10 mg. ritalin ever before, during my druggie days, 'recreationally.' quotes because i got nothing out of it then but a stoamch ache; i can tell you that i DO know it's not - completely - like cocaine! ha.
thanks for the link, and making it so easy by telling me exactly what to look up. i've read you here for years. you are so much more knowledgeable than i in the science end of all this.
however, i don't know your history. ONLY if you don't mind saying: are or were you a pharmacist, on your way to becoming one.... or does this knowledge come because you're naturally so inclined, but, also, unfortunately, have HAD to learn ALL these things? (in a way similar to my having HAD to learn pscyhology and criminolgy, areas where i'm naturally inclined, being an artist first. (that's quite common, btw. i know very few that don't have both abilities, but one or the other is usually a secondary pursuit).
now don't get me wrong. i, too, believe one must be as informed a client as one possibly can, and be responsible for one's own mental health. to do otherwise, has proven to be sheer folie for most here.
thanks again - you go to the mat to help others, even when you are struggling mightily yourself.
