I take 60 mg of Adderall and 3 mg of Xanax throughout the day. I also take Zoloft and Wellbutrin in the AM.
I'm thinking of switching from Xanax to Valium because the Xanax has a rebound effect and requires a really high dose- 3-4 mg for panic attacks, even taking that much at one time just brings me back to baseline. I've been taking Xanax for years and still feel it's effects, even in small doses, but feel like it's running out too fast and I'm having to re-dose and it's not effective for panic attacks anymore.
I suggested trying Valium to my doctor and she ordered me a script and I've taken them for a few days. They've helped with the anxiety but are causing me to be drowsy and yawn when it peaks. Will the drowsy effects of Valium become less pronounced if I take it longer, or will it keep making me drowsy.
I also like the muscle relaxant properties of Valium; it helps with my back spasms.
In taking the Adderall I like that it helps me focus and gives me an ambitious spirit. I'm concerned that this effect would be diminished if I take Valium; unless the sleepy effect wears off after a few weeks of use.
I guess the only way to tell if the sleepiness will wear off are to try it for a few weeks but I wanted to get some feedback from others who have experience with it.
