I wonder if it could be from excess serotonin {mild serotonin syndrome} from the dexedrine and zoloft or from the zoloft increasing dopamine because zoloft also inhibits the reuptake of dopamine surprisingly.are you BP? you could be having a mixed mood or dysphoric kind of hypo stage caused by the zoloft.
