Hi everyone. Im 22 and i suffer from depression, generalized anxiety disorder,and social phobia. I currently take 1 xanax(.25mg), 40mg of generic prozac, 1 wellbutrin(300mg) and as of yesterday 1 adderall(20mg) has been added to the mix. In all im taking 5 pills every morning along with 2 xanaxs at night. I would like to know if any of these other meds will damper the effects of the adderall? I have absolute zero motivation and i feel lethargic. Im sure the anti depressants arent working but im kinda intimidated by my doctor. Will the adderall help me become more focused and get more pep in my step or will it just give me a jolt? He said to take one pill but if needed i can take 1 plus a half of one. Exam week is coming up in 2 weeks will adderall give me the focus factor? :cry:
I really want to get away from all of the meds and just stick to one or 2 but i dont really know how to tell my doc. He knows whats best i suppose.

hi, I am getting ready to add Adderall to my extensive med list. Let me put a differing spin on your comment. Docs don't neccesarily "know best" so far as results from a given med or combo coming out of the gate but what they DO know is whether or not the combo is known to have any counter productive affects on one another or on the patient and if the down side is a worthwhile price to pay. Thier is always the exception to the rule but likely you will not have negative affects from the combo. The doc uses trial and errow to determine if the addition of a new med achieves the treatment goal and will tweek it untill you improve or he runs out of tweeks and turns to the next possibility. give it a chance :)

it depends on your body i have taken meds since i was 10 and the only meds that have worked for long periods are ,effexor,serequel,and doxepin then after two years and i had a child my chemicals changed and the doctor put me on wellbutrin ,topmax, klodepin,and because of my moods and deppression and inability to function and not want to be around no one and start to stutter with flustration because head raceing so fast he is trying me on adderall xr and thats because adderall xr stays in your system all day plan adderall is short term . so i dont mix the klodepin and addereall at same time i take all meds morning and night if i have a panic attack doc said try to wait till 12 one for klodepin and always take adderall in the morning early so you can sleep at night if you get insomnia and i take a klodepin at night to sleep and it seems to be helping .
