I have been reading things in this site for a few weeks.

The idea of stimulants working to help anxiety really interest me because I suffer from severe anxiety. I was told I have OCD 8 years ago and for the most part effexor had worked for me. It really helped with my anxiety and the OCD and depression in the past. I weaned myself off a year ago and this Janurary had a horribe relapse. Effexor is not working like it did before, and I have lots of axienty still.

Something I had kinda noticed was that on days that a drank a caffeine beverage like coke or moundtain dew I would start to feel better. For the most part I stayed away for caffiene because of everthing I read about it causing anxiety. But I wonder. I did mention this to my pdoc jokingly that I was oppisite girl and that maybe stimulants would work for me. She of course just looked at me stupidly, and prescribed clozapam for the anxiety which doesn't relieve it totally for me. It just makes so groggy all I want to do is take cat naps all day long. Who can do that?
