I have been on Luvox for 6 years now. It is HORRIBLE if you try to come off it or run out. I vary between 150 and 300 mg a day. I also take Adderall XR and the occasional Clonazepam.
The Luvox is for OCD. Adderall for ADHD.
I don't have any issues with Luvox and caffeine. With the ADHD the caffiene just puts me to sleep.
Yes, I have a flattened affect. It has cost me some friendships and some jobs. I am a teacher by profession and my coworkers would see me as not caring about things, and to a great extent, they are right. I don't understand what there is to get so worked up about. That flattened affect helps a lot with kids though. My tolerance is amazing and the kids know I never yell.
I found this site looking for info on some generics available. I have quit my comfy teaching job to go back to school full time in another state leaving my family behind for the time being. No more health insurance!
If you have any issues with Luvox, I would be happy to provide my experiences- good and bad.
