I dont know the technical reasons off hand,but it can happen,especialy when taken together,drugs are complex,and some sedatives,example GHB a sedative can be intensified by adding a stimulant,yess u would think that the stimulant would counter act the sedation,but instead it 'can" poentiate and create a more maniac phase.
Now this isnt the case always,lots of times a person stimulated can use say klonopin in small doses and achieve calm,but it is possable for a stimulant/sedative combo to create a maniac phase.
I promise ill find some info,i dont have any google time now,but its in a few of my books.
Also my reaction to it was because i must not be adhd or have that kinda of problem,reacting to ritalin in a maniac way is common for someone who doesent need it.
I did not use it recreational,however it became that,it simply wasnt the drug for me,but i know people,children even who take ritalin and it calms them down quite well,we are so far from understanding drugs in respect to our brain,best we can do is becareful.
Im not by the way discoruaging ur protocol,just sharing a experiance,good luck on it!
