I have been taking the generic form of Ritalin for about 4 yrs. I only take 2 pills a day, 10 mg. each, the psychiatrist prescribing them is now wanting me to switch to the long acting version 20 mg one pill a day, I do not think that will help and it costs alot more (213 dollars) than the one I am currently taking (8 dollars), and I do not have ins. that will pay it, how can I get her to understand my frustrations, I have an appt. on Tues. with her to try to work this out. I also am very depressed and suicidal and very aggitated at everything and really am confused as what to do.

If anyone could offer some suggestions on this I would greatly appreciate hearing them.

Thanks
