Re: ADDERALL AND ZOLOFT TAKEN TOGETHER ANYONE?

Are you taking your zoloft before bed? Because if you aren't maybe you should try that or vice versa. That zoloft used to make me pass out. Not only that but it made me very uncomfortable 4 or 5 hours after taking it and then after an hour everything was fine--that was part of the reason to take it at night. Just thought I'd let you know about that anxiety part. Whenever I couldn't sleep I could take microscopic amounts of melatonin and I'd be out.

And that wellbutrin + adderall story is funny because I once tried the combo and I too would feel incredibly tired & sleepy in the afternoon. Then at night I would wake up for some damn reason! I thought it was me but I guess not. For some reason the WB made me want to sleep somethin' feirce.

> Hey Ash, you actually got tired in the afternoon taking 40 of adderall? Wow! I just started yesterday on 40 mg and I was so wired today...A nap was the furthest thing from my mind. How long have you been taking that dose? Maybe it's a tolerance thing with you and it just doesn't stimulate your nervous system like it first did?

Call up your pdoc and tell him you can't sleep and ask if you can just take 20mg in the morning only for awhile, jeez I never heard of any doc starting somebody out on a max dose before.
