Yes indeed. Whereas straterra, Provigil, and even drugs like desipramine, and possibly fluoxetine sent me climbing the walls, amphetamine had anti-anxiety effects that surpassed even benzos! Ritalin was not quite as clean in that regard, but still surprising for a stimulant.I can't explain, but if you can imagine anxiety as a symptom of a neurological disorder or something other than just the symptom anxiety itself. And that disorder gets corrected even than the anxiety goes away. That was at least my experience here.
Now I feel less impressed with the theory and wonder if I was just mildly high on therapeutic doses of amphetamines for awhile.
