Katie, I'm taking 4 mg total per day at the moment, and it may soon be raised to 8 mg total per day.
> I think if you were taking 4 mgs., it would almost offset 40 mgs. of Adderall (at least for me it would).
The two classes of drugs here, benzodiazepines and amphetamines, are not opposites. The clonazepam reduces anxiety, while the dextroamphetamine both makes one more sociable AND helps treat the component of the depressive disorder that involves low motivation, lack of energy and apathy. Together, they are fantastic for Social Phobia. To correct a misconception of yours, dextroamphetamine is the generic name for Dexedrine, while mixed amphetamine salts goes by the brand Adderall. I feel absolutely no sedation from the clonazepam, by the way.
> You could also try adding Effexor.
Effexor for me was like a very weak SSRI, even at very high doses.
