> Chairman I'm curious what makes you ask about the stim...I'm taking the benzo partially for concentration, partially for social anxiety, and partially because it calms what I call in lay terms as hypomania from the SSRI and Lamictal.
I ask because these are all really just drugs with effects; just because something is labelled something and conventionally used for that doesn't mean that the effect you're looking for is anything like what is going to happen.
I am not sure if "hypomania" is the right word.
Benzodiazepines can sometimes worsen agitation and anxiety in the long-term. You're already on three drugs so I'm not sure how you're supposed to tease apart the effects.What is the Lamictal and the SSRI prescribed for?

> I've taken stimulants recreationally. they seem to work but make me anxious if not taken with some kind of anxiolytic.Which stimulants, and at what doses? The dose is very important, and different stimulants have different effects. Also please tell me which medications you were taking, if any, when you tried them.
If you want any additional feedback from me, please tell me which drug you started taking first, then the rest in the order they were added and why.
Best of luck.
