Hi Gabbi. I sure have been learning alot of things lately on this board and learning much from you. I had no idea until recently that dexedrine was anything but a diet drug, and I also had wierd ideas about amphetamines. There are many other uses apparently other than to get high.
When I was younger and did speed I always got sick- sometimes threw-up, then got very tired and wanted to sleep. I never got a buzz from amphetamines. . . wonder what this means, if anything. I am just wondering about these types of meds because if you are unipolar and it benefits you then there are many more applications for this med . . .
The Dexedrine increases the effects of the effexor? I think effexor itself is a more stimulating AD. but I could be wrong. That might just have been my reaction. I got really wierded-out on it.
How did you like prozac? Did you start feeling bad on them after a while-is that why dr. thought they weren't working anymore? That's funny. My dr.'s reaction when I started to feel like crude when I was on prozac was to just UP the med. But thats his opinion on every med when there is a bad effect!
So you take the dexedrine in AM? If you took later would it affect your sleep at night?
And you mentioned you take it as needed? So, if you are real anxious or depressed some days you can take 20mg and feel it working a little bit later?
Hmmm. Interesting!
Thanks so much again, for all the info.
