Generally speaking, how much would Ritalin need to be spaced out, to keep that honeymoon feeling?

I'm prescribed 10mg Ritalin (IR) for ADHD and I've been taking 5mg.

When I first took it, I was an absolute productivity machine all day from 8am to 10pm. It was amazing.

In hopes to not build a tolerance, I waited another week to take it again. Got the same WOW effect.

So now I have a day per week where I basically get all my work done for the week done in one day.

But now I'm wondering, do I even need to wait a week to preserve this magic? I want to flirt with narrowing the space one day at a time, but I'm worried I'll suddenly bust (lose the honeymoon effect for a long time).

But if everyone says even 1x every 3 days is safe to keep my dopamine receptors fresh, then I'll experiment.

I asked my doctor and she says she doesn't know, and says just take it once per day.

Curious if anyone has any experience with this.
