i've been taking ritalin for the past 5 yrs. i try to take med breaks every now and again.
i gain weight almost immediately when off ritalin. i am a dancer and dance 6 days a week, still gain weight, and feel unconfortable especially when i dance.
has anyone else experienced weight gain going off ritalin? the longest i stayed off ritalin was 3 months (a yr and a half ago.) i gained about 10 lbs but never lost it during the time i was off it.
My doc put me on wellbutrin as an alternative to ritalin for half a second and the same thing happened when i went off that.
