> Regarding the Desoxyn, I'm curious as to why it might not help with the "laughing attacks" as well as the Dexedrine. Is it a lack of specific chemicals, or ... ? Do you know? If so, I'd find it interesting to know (never know when such info might benefit me in the future)

It is just that Dexedrine is used specifically for gelastic epilepsy (the uncontrolled unconscious laughing spells). The Desoxyn might work just as well though. I am thinking this is an ADHD phenomenon more than an epilepsy-thing.
