Hi,
Im new to writing but have been reading archives ever since I started taking meds. I hope someone can help, Im on a whole slew of things and wonder if anyone out there has taken similar combinations and possible alternatives:
Effexor 150mg
Xanax XR 1mg 2x day
Propranolol 20mg 2x day
Gabitril 10mg
Lamictal 100mg
Seroquel 150mg
Provigil 200mg
This is not working!!!!!!!
I'm exhausted (obviously because all the meds minus the Provigil are "downers," I think.) The Provigil isn't working anymore and I'm back to sleepy time. My pdoc is going to have me try either Adderall or Dexaamphetamine, but I'm afraid of this as in the past I had a severe addiction to both types of illegal stimulants ("C" and "CM" I cant even say or spell them without having a major panic attack). Is this going to produce the same effect? Also, I think Ive built up a tolerance to the Xanax. Will switching to a different anti-anxiety help? Also, if anyone knows, what would be a similar dose? I dont know if anyone can answer these. I talk to my doc and she just switches meds around and then I panic more and more. Any advice or comforting words would be nice. She has been playing "Chemistry experiment" for about 5 months now :(
