Anything's possible--maybe the high dose of the mixed amphetamine formula (adderall) trespassed in your brain's idea of a danger area for too much stimulation... Maybe it was too much dopamine when taken with a powerful MAO-b inhibitor like EMSAM?
But perhaps the bad experience, or other factors, might have affected your expectations of the medication, and added negative associations to it that make you wary? I find when I lose confidence in a drug, it has a practical effect on whether it can work for me, but maybe not everyone is like that.
Hope it works out--maybe you could take a break from the amphetamine? Keep in mind the mood-effects drugs have on various people are quite inconsistent.
Best,
