  1. Ritilin will mess you up. http://www.ghchealth.com/ritalin-and-can...

    it can cause cancer too.


  2. If you have ADD or ADHD,

    it really helps you get through the day.

    For me, I have ADHD, it helps me get through the day by helping me focus, however, if you don't have ADHD, its like speed.

    Ritalin is fast acting and fast dying as well. I was on 20mg at 6. I got up to 60mg twice daily at 11. Im on different meds since then. Im taking Vyvanse now,

    MIRACLE DRUG!

    Helps so much.

    Im 16 right now, and in my Junior year. It has positive effects on me.

    Ritalin messed with my normal body habits at the beginning. When you get regulated after a while on it, its good for the effects of ADHD.

    I used to eat everything in sight, (was a chubby child yes) and then the meds took me down from the constant hunger. So really its helpful.

    Its a good medicine

  3. Ritalin is a central nervous system stimulant. It affects chemicals in the brain and nerves that contribute to hyperactivity and impulse control.

  4. side effects - loss of apetite, dry mouth

    how long the ritalin effects you - regular Ritalin - 4 hours

    how long it takes to start working - 20 minutes

    any concerns that you should have if you start taking it - not when presribed by a doctor that knows your medical history and has done a check-up.  At the prescribed levels to someone with ADHD brain biochemistry, it is safe.

    dependency risks - not at the prescribed levels for ADHD people

    addiction - people who do not have the biochemistry of an ADHD brain have a much higher chance of getting a chemical addiction.  

    You are clued in!  Go forth and be smarter!

  5. it fuckssss you up !

  6. Ritalin is a derivative of cocaine and is used to control ADHD.

    I would not touch it or give it to any of my children.

    But ADHD I believe is caused by one or more combinations of additives in our food preservatives,colourings. enhancers and more, that the food industry adds to induce us to buy more of their product. and because every body is basically different, no two chemicals that cause this problem are the same.

    In England the general public approached a manufacturer to stop them from putting a blue colouring in their sweets which the company did and there are no blue ones in the packets that are sold in the U K.

    But they are still produced and sold in Australia?

    If you are asking about this question because of ADHD then read a book called 'FED UP by SUE DENGATE'.

    GOOD LUCK.
