Do you mind my asking what AD and stim you are on right now? Was the stim prescribed for ADHD or to augment your AD? My doctor and I had discussed a stimulant since it is felt that I have a bit of ADHD, although it has never been too severe. I am a bit nervous of stimulants since I don't seem to do too well on ADs that hit the norepinphrine (sp) neurostransmitter. While they don't necessary increase my anxiety, they tend to make me apprehensive, if that makes sense. I am on Remeron, with Lexapro, right now and I have this underlying apprehensive feeling about doing things that never would cause me apprehension. I didn't have that before I went on the Remeron, with the exception of when I tried Effexor for about 6 months a number of years ago. Weird.
Thanks again! Have a great day!!
