I also have that relaxed feeling during a hangover. I believe that the normal reaction is to be shaky and jittery, so that someone wants some "hair of the dog" to feel better.
Somehow we feel the opposite. I also react very differently to stimulants than most. Currently I'm taking Ritalin SR 20mg day for ADD and find that it makes me feel very relaxed. It dosen't hit me like a ton of bricks, but I notice that I can talk to people without being self conscience and traffic doesn't bother me like before. I don't have all the unnecessary worries like I used to. And I have no problem sleeping, when I'm tired, rit or not.
I also take 200 mg. Wellbutrin 2x day and 20 mg. celexa a day. I never had the usual reaction to Well either. Never make me nervous or stimulated, like the side effect profile says.
Hope this brought you a little someting to think about.
