Zoloft and Dexedrine?

[Depressicaa]

I'm being prescribed both right now... I was asking about social anxiety, and... unfortunately I got prescribed Zoloft.

What would happen if I took it and Dexedrine together? Would it fuck up the Dexedrine or make it weaker or make ADD worst?

I read about sexual side effects too.. how common are they in 25mg dosages?

Everyone responds differently to both d amp and zoloft but 25 mgs of Dexedrine is hardly enough to make much of a difference in potency. IMO if you can pick one life would be simpler. Dexedrine has fabulous antidepressant qualities for a bout a week. Then the slow decline of life begins. both are powerful drugs that change our neural chemistry in ways poorly understood.

Yeah I was thinking that... I don't think my doctor would know if I was taking the medication or not... I shouldn't have picked it up because I didn't think it was a good idea to use an SSRI. I can't wait for the frequent anal discharge.

I was prescribed zoloft 20mg a week ago I havent taken it because its an SSRI.
You'll have a hard time orgasming because of the Zoloft too.
And no, I dont know of any effect where one cancels out the others intended effect

Zoloft sucks... If you want off of it.. look up the negative side effects and go tell your dr you're getting "such and such" and you don't like it... also that you cannot have an orgasm and you read that this class of medication makes it so it is hard to get off.. ask for something to take "as needed" that you don't want to be medicated daily. You will get a benzo script most likely.. if you dr is cool.. but just dont become a daily user unless you want to taper at the end.. however if you need daily medication for anxiety klonopin is the best one for anxiety without the presence of panic disorder to be taken alone. 1mg a day at bedtime will keep you anxiety free all day. Good luck!

I detest anti depressants and won't go on them.

Yeah that's what I asked about (something that I didn't need to take everyday), but I didn't wanna push it since I lost 5lbs that day (go working out and not eating or drinking while being sick on Dexedrine :D )

What is your experience with benzos? I took a half mg of Lorazapam, and even then I felt drunk, fell asleep, and just had no rest.

I have been on benzos for the past 3 years. 2 mg of xanax a day as needed. 1 mg of klonopin a day.. just got 20mg of valium a day as needed and went off the xanax. I wouldn't deal with anxiety any other way.

I lost 5 lbs in 2 days... Topamax, slimfast.. food... water and what not

I was scripted dexedrine when I was younger.. had to be taken off of it.. it made me anorexic.
