In reply to Adderall with mood stabilizer?, posted by SheilaC on October 27, 2010, at 16:57:03
adderall can have major mood effects on some folks. I dont go much higher than 10mg BID.. too much up and down in mood and energy for me.
I was taking it along with an SSRI and that made me a little more immune to the swings.
Otherwise Id look into swapping it for dexedrine (more dopamine, less NE) or maybe methlyphenidate.
Maybe even an ER version would be enough to make a difference. Or taking more frequent, smaller doses and going right to bed when it wears off.
Stims can be really touchy when youre changing things around, youd be surprised.
