i found that being on Ritalin or any psychostimulant daily for long periods of time (even weeks) loses its effectiveness. The "up" period is less and less perfect and is shorter. The "down" (or rebound as they call it) comes on faster, lasts longer, and is more severe. Basically it just makes me anxious and semi-paranoid. i guess some people can stay on it for long periods and receive good benefit though. This is just my experience.
