I am taking a prescription medication. It is Guaimax-D. A combination of Pseudoephedrine and Guaifenisin. I only take it when allergies are bad but have noticed a remarkable difference in my energy level. SSRI's make me so "lazy" and I have noticed a lot of people on this board posting about adding a stimulant to their med regimen and I was just wondering if my allergy medicine has the same effect as a stimulant would.

Speaking of heart problems--if I try to reduce my Klonopin dose I wake up in the middle of the night with nightmares and a heart that is pounding so hard it feels like it might pound right out of my chest. Does that mean I am "addicted" to Klonopin?

Thanks for your input,
Jane
