> Whats the strongest OVER-THE-COUNTER stimulant or herb available to increase wakefulness?? I take Caffeine tablets but they don't really help. I don't want to get on the heavy stimulants such as Amphetamines / Ritalin etc. if I can help it.

> I've been on a about 4 different SSRIs and each makes me really drowsy, especially Seroxat - that was the worst!
>
> I'm on Prozac at the moment, and even that is making me really drowsy during the day, all I want to do during the day is sleep. So when night comes I'm not tired because I've slept in the day!
>
> I'm going to start taking my 20mg Prozac at night and see if that helps.
>
> Still any suggestions on stimulants would be helpful!
