I’ll take a 10 mg tablet of Ritalin two or three times a day to combat extreme fatigue. Lately I have been experiencing a “crash“ after about three hours. It is extreme… I have to lie down and wait for it to pass.Can anyone offer me any advice about this?
Methylphenidate - I am experiencing extreme ups and downs in energy with Ritalin usage?

This is pretty much why I'm discontinuing methylphenidate. Every day after it wears off I get extremely sad and angry. Not a good place. I didn't have this problem with Adderall, so my doctor is resuming that and dropping the Ritalin. I know this isn't much help, but if the side effects are too much, something needs to change. Don't give up.
