> I usually take, as prescribed by my doctor, 15mg Dexedrine Spansules 3X per day. There are some days were I have taken a pill or two over then what is prescribed – my doctor knows about this. I don’t know if I took 4 or 5 capsules the other day, but in addition I took a 15 or 20 mg pill of Adderall. I was cleaning out my car and found an old pill box that had some Adderall, so I decided to augment it to my medications. I also take 100mg of Zoloft and took 4 or 5 mg of Klonopin.

> Anyway, for about 8 hour I had a problem of - the best way to describe it, having water in my ears. I would be talking and then suddenly I would disassociate with my sense of hearing. I couldn't hear myself talk but I could hear others talking. It would come as quickly as it leaves! Anyone know what the heck was going on? I am sure someone can relate? I know I took to much medicine, but what happened and is there a name for this condition? Thanks.
Hi,I've also taken too many stimulants before, while taking antidepressants too. I didn't have your exact experience, but I did have mild visual hallucination (I'd think someone else was in the room, turn quickly, and see no one, and some annoying auditory hallucinations as well (I'd hear a radio playing the same few songs over and over and over- searched high and low for source, but eventually realized it was in my own head.)
My question to you is have you been getting enough sleep? My adverse reactions were usually when I'd taken too much to be able to get to sleep- I'm talking days without sleep sometimes, but others just one night without sleep would bring on the hallucinations.
Just a thought.
Take care,
Caper
