Has anybody heard of high-dose Dexedrine creating "rapid cycling?" Before current MAOI, my cocktail included Dexedrine, up to 50> mg daily. Once beyond 50 (never more than 60) my judgement was severely impaired and DEX side effects created problems. So I tried to keep it at 50 or less. But even at these doses, my mind would become racy, busy and noisy. Thoughts a mile-a-minute. PDOC said rapid cycler, and put me on Lamictal. It seemed to help some but now that I'm not on DEX anymore, I suspect the Lamictal is causing my current fatigue problems -- either this or Dexedrine withdrawl? Any experiences? Maybe I should reduce/eliminate Lamictal? (I wouldn't without a doc's advice) Thanks
