In reply to Ritalin poop-out?, posted by zmg on July 28, 2007, at 19:14:05
The best simplified answer I can give is like this. I've been drinking coffee for 5 years. I started with decaf, then moved to regular coffee. Then I discovered expresso. Then I started to have two shots of expresso, finally arriving to 4 shots with half and half milk. Now my body has developed a tolerance to the expresso to where it is no longer a stimulant, it's simply another beverage that I drink that's not effective for say people that drink it to stay awake in the morning or start their day. I can drink it right before bed and go straight to sleep because I've developed a tolerance to it. It's the same way with ritalin and other stimulants.
