I'm an extremely athletic guy. I go to the gym 5 days a week. Here is the kicker. I have A.D.H.D. and I take "R" for my meds. Ever since I started taking them, I have been staying in the gym for 3 hours a day and it doesn't phase me. I know that ritilan is basically legal cocaine so what I'm asking is, is this side affect natural?
Do you think it's normal?

Ritalin is like speed (tweak, meth, crank, etc.) not coke. It decreases your appetite, causes your heart rate to increase, and makes you very hyper. However, when someone with A.D.H.D takes ritalin it should have opposite effects. It is supposed to calm you down and help you concentrate. Caffiene should also have oppsite effects on people with A.D.H.D so drink some coffee and see how it affects you. Maybe you should go back to the doctor because their is a big trend in mis-diagnosing people with A.D.H.D.
Did someone say Meth^? I am the Greek goddess of Energy!! You should try to work out for longer. So you can get healthier.

You stated, " I know that ritilan is basically legal cocaine ". Where ever did you get that idea from? It's *FAR* removed from cocaine. Better check a PDR.
Once you get used to a routine, it shouldn't phase you. If you stop taking ritalin (which is not like legal cocaine), do you still go to the gym that much? I wouldn't advise stopping until after talking to a doctor about it.
YOu must be taking a lot of Ritalin, because Ritalin is really not like cocaine except that it's a stimulant. I take Dexedrine for my ADD and yes it has the same kind of effects, especially with cardio, but my heartrate goes up to 180 or 190. Just be careful, don't abuse the stuff. Watch your bloodpressure.
I agree. You should really try and stop taking it.

You can sell the Ritalin to some Jr High kids and take the profits from the overinflated prices they pay and buy some real-man's drugs like crack and speed. Stop being a pussy.
This is a normal reation this drug whether you do or don't have ADHD. Yes, if you have ADHD, ritalin may help "calm you down" and help you focus, but that doesn't mean it has a reverse effect on people with ADHD. It is still a stimulant, and is banned in most drug-tested sports because of the effects that you've noticed. However, you're probably not a proffessional athelete, so I wouldn't worry about it. In my experience excersizing, most of the drug's impact comes from the improved focus and concentration I have when taking ritalin. That change in brain function was why I was taking the drug, so I didn't see anything strange about taking advantage of that change to do something I enjoyed. However, I've found that while stimulants help improve my short-term focus, they don't nescessarily imrove my jugement about what I focus on.

What is ADHD?

^ Well I think this man wants a cookie. and ADHD stands for attention deficit hyper activity disorder.
why do you have to take that kind of subtances? that not make you better or worst person, and give importance to things that not help to your health.-
think in a few years when you arrive to the fifties haw will affect to you with so many substances in your blood, ? perhaps you want to go down at 50 years old without sex possibilities and farted.- care with that you dont need that for be healty.-
your a oompa loompa head

aye its normal but staying in the gym more than an 2 hours tops will result in over training causing loss of muscle mass tendom and ligement damage you should try training harder for shorter periods if it dosnt work go home have a wank always a pleaser
