ADHD info about Ritalin

No. Amphetamines are in a Class all their own. Ritalin, drug name methylphenidate, is not an amphetamine derivative. Ritalin is a mild central nervous system stimulant.

The mode of action in man is not completely understood, but Ritalin presumably activates the brain stem arousal system and cortex to produce its stimulant effect.

There is neither specific evidence which clearly establishes the mechanism whereby Ritalin produces its mental and behavioral effects in children, nor conclusive evidence regarding how these effects relate to the condition of the central nervous system.

I appreciate it very much

I too get this from time to time. The google search that eventually led me to this forum, was 'louder voice in my head". This is a HUGE indicator of the onset. Time will slow down and my voice, my thought voice, will almost be yelling. Very slow and faint, rising in volume. This began when I was a young kid too, 4 yrs old maybe. I would get up to go to the bathroom, and begin hearing my thoughts yelling my name in the same way I described above. Another incident, was when I was about 18 yrs old, and DURING SEX my focal point began growing, like a magnifying glass. It was bugged out, cuz this chicks face just started growing... But now I'm assured, like the rest of you, that I am not crazy. A little disappointed that i DO NOT in fact have super powers. LOL.
