In reply to Tianeptine + adrafinil?, posted by Kirj on November 17, 2007, at 19:33:50

Be very very careful my dear. I would never recommend this because, I was almost to end up in psychiatric emergency room today because of Modafinil + Tianeptine combo. What I experienced was a genuine bad "Trip" usually one experiences under the influence of LSD. Like my senses have overturned and the fear this drug induced effect will not go away turned me into extremely panicky and agitated. I walked restlessly inside my Office as a caged lion, grunting, not knowing whether to scream and break all the furniture.
Fortunately, I had kept some Ativan and Xanax handy with me. I chewed 2 mg Ativan first, but the severity of symptoms were so intolerable so not waiting for more, I chewed 2 mg Xanax too. After 15 minutes, the panic and agitation seems to be lessening. But still I have a very clouded sensorium that doesn't allow me to work properly. I just keep typing and typing..
I know Stablon can induce a depersonalization effect which some enjoy, but for me it was like all is coming to an end. Thanks Xanax. You are the life saver here, because I could manage it without making it to the psychiatic clinic here. I hope many in this board will have extremely unpleasant experiences in a psychiatric emergency. Especially where Docs use cheap major tranquilizers to calm patiens which eventually contributes to severe akathisia. Akathisia itself can kill a patient if not treated well. I once experienced it when I visited the emergency room here with vertigo. They administered Prochlorperazine, and the whole night, I had to spend wih my magnificent friens who were very supportive, but still couldn't help what I was experiencing.
Once again, please be very careful when you mix two drugs, because you never will know how both are affecting you.
Cheers.
