In reply to Look what I took in my last job interview, posted by tepiaca on July 26, 2006, at 0:15:04
Tep,
I have been a similar situaiton... when i was interviewing for med schools (i live in canada), i took wellbutrin and lexapro together.. these drugs sent hypomanic.. i was so social, and believe i came across as very intelligent and witty... im not sayin u were hypomanic or anything, i dont know if you were..but the moral of my little story is that i dont think its good to play with drugs like this, it can lead to dependence... mabye its just that the higher dose of nardil helped u more, i understand 15 is not much... or mabye ur right, a stimulant may turn the trick.. but i dont think u should go through life readjusting ur meds on a temperorary basis to fit the situation.. remember, were aiming for stability!

> This TimeI take 30mg Nardil 2mg Xanax and 2 cups of cofee . Oh my god . I thougth I was talking to and old friend . I forgot he was the most important person of the company in the country . I just start to talk very calm , laughing if necessarry , speaking very well in english when he asked me to. So basically I was another person. I end up the interview so happy that I dont care If I am elected for the job. I know I did my best , and my real Tep was there.

> I have a certain feeling that something stimulant may help me to feel better than ever. Some extra drug. I would like to add some drug like this to the combo , before taking more Nardil. Any Idea?
