oh without a doubt. and that's another thing. Me and my pdoc always have very interesting convos about my reactions to different drug classes. for example, the tremendous amount of xanax that felt like a placebo to me....the fact that i need 14mg of klonopin, but at the same time, amphetamines is one thing im EXTREMELY sensitive to. complete opposite to benzos. i take aderal for homework, (was...switched to concerta b/c of harsh comedown effects)...and I had to take the smallest mg pill (5) that was made. sometimes i'd even break it in half. Also I've been a mystery when it comes to coming off drugs that are normally talked about being extremely hard to come off of. 3 biggest ones i can think of are Effexor XR (on max dose for almost a year and stopped cold turkey, felt not one side effect)....i've heard horror stories about that one. The Xanax XR I think I was on 12 or 15mg per day and came off that completely within 1 month, maybe a little longer? and the klonopin, i've gone down from 14 to 10 after 3 weeks. i could go faster but my doc doesnt want me to.
