Snorting Ritalin

[fickle_goddess]

Words of wisdom from a second-hand chick lit book I bought, concerning adults snorting Ritalin as a concentration aid:

"Thing is that pills that are fun to snort are easy to crush. Pharmacists make it this way to turn us into addicts, so who the fuck am I to argue?"

When asked to elaborate, the guy who said the above continues:

"Zoloft and Paxil

Oh, yeah, absolutely. It's so much lulz when Endless and Emily do it, after all.

I realize it's probably a sign of how exhausted I am that I even need to ask, but are you being sarcastic or not?

*mostly convinced it's sarcasm*

Your body is adapting to it and taking more will more than likely not help and doing it by this method is likely to give you a bad reaction/not help/make matters worse.

Talk to the one that gave you the prescription on what should be done....

Please, don't. Y'need to talk to a professional on what to do and not risk making matters worse, love.

*hugs* I promise I'm not serious, Dani. I've never snorted anything in my life, I wouldn't even know where to start. XD

But, the talk about the actual pills is true. *nods* (Actually, from a branch of experience -- chewing stuff that's not meant to be chewed isn't smart. ... *knows from experience*).

GOOD. Dude, just imagine the feeling of milk/water (whatever) coming OUT of your nose! OH THE PAIN.

Haha, she already knows what that's like, she's hopeless at drinking and laughing at the same time :p

More specifically, don't do it without talking to a doctor about possible side effects. I know that one of the problems with powdered drugs such as cocaine is that sniffing them can damage the nasal membranes, but I don't know whether this is specific to the drug or not. And goolge isn't telling me :(

Either way, drugs are put into certain formats for a reason, and doctors are often fairly specific about how you're meant to take something.

Remember the mint dental floss - things which seem like they might be a good/interesting idea or a 'logical' solution to a problem don't always work out the way you want them to!!

...You tried Googling it?!

And yeah, point about the mental tooth floss. It's practically going to become my motto now, I think.

I was gonna ask you the other day if your ears were (and now, are) doing better? My piercings actually got infected the other day and were SORE -- and all I could think about was your experience with the dental floss....

[harmonybunny114]

Yeah I did. If the govt is tracking my internet activity, they're totally going to think I'm a crack-addict, I searched for every mention of 'powder' 'drugs' 'cocaine' 'sniffing' and 'nasal' that I could think of :p Then again, if they're tracking my internet activity then they'll already know I'm depraved ;)

Er, mental tooth floss? Freudian slip, my darling? XD

[witchwillow]

I don't suggest it hon. I think you'd be better off taking a warm bath and using a vibrator. I'm just saying.

[fickle_goddess]

...*dies* The asexual thing might kill the vibrator idea just a little :P But I promise, I am not going to snort sleeping pills, seriously, no matter how desperate I get!

[mirrored_echo]

I hate to suggest this, but getting less screen time might be more likely to help.
