Title: The Story of the Ritalin Guy
Post by: bynter on November 12, 2012, 07:34 am
This happened to me yesterday, and I thought it would make a pretty funny story, altough I'm really hoping the cold text won't text the spirit out of it.

Yesterday in class, this guy looked at me, turned his head sideways, and said, and said, "You look funny. Maybe it's just that I took three times my medication dosage." I spent the next 50 minutes trying to pay attention to the lecture while this joker performed a variety of tasks ranging from listening to his CPU to typing an essay at about 100 WPM at the loudest fucking noise level you've ever heard, while overall just acting like this cat..... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIBztECpWqI

Being the overloaded student I am, I asked him what this gloriously powerful stimulant must be; fucking 5 mg methylphenidate. When I'm told him that I've taken 160 mgs at once, that I'm used to the 40mgs my friend gives me, and that the methylphenidate LD50 is 10,000mg, he responded by practically screaming, "WOW I DONT BELIEVE YOU, I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO HAVE A HEART ATTACK WHEN I TOOK 40MG, THATS SOME POWERFUL SPEED YOURE TAKING!!!!"

Meanwhile in onionland...

Nah, people respond differently to drugs. I would also find myself over-jittery when taking more than 30mg. Things happen.

But how is 5 mg three times his prescribed medication dose? I didn't think they sold 1.6 mg ritalin?

He's prescribed 5, he had 15 that day.
