Ways to counteract stimulant anxiety

Posted by mtdewcmu on April 19, 2011, at 14:29:19

My current med regimen is:

150mg Luvox, 15-30mg Remeron, 20-30mg Dexedrine, and some Artane (trihexyphenidyl) for AD-induced sweating.

I think the benefits of Dexedrine on concentration are being counteracted by the anxiety it is causing or worsening.

I have seen mentions of alpha-2 agonists, like clonidine and guanfacine, calcium channel blockers, like verapamil, and also anticholinergics being used to relieve stimulant anxiety.

I'm sensitive to drugs that cause orthostatic hypotension, so I'm not sure if I could tolerate blood pressure meds.

Has anyone had this problem and found a way to correct it?
