Oh gosh, B2, I feel so bad, I meant to get back to you yesterday. I'm so glad you were able to tell T everything, and then get rid of the blades!
I posted on meds cause I've had a feeling for a long time that your meds are messing you up, because of the black hole of suicidal depression I had with the Adderall when it was too high, and then the weird suicidal thoughts I had with the Strattera.
Anyway, Scott said,
"Both Ritalin and Wellbutrin can cause anxiety, which can act to propel a depressed person into a suicidal state. Wellbutrin made me feel more depressed, even though it did not produce anxiety. It intensified my dysphoria. It is difficult to guess with 100% certainty what exactly is going on here. What is she being treated for, and why were these drugs chosen for her in the first place? I am particularly interested in the Ritalin and Zyprexa."And zeugma talked about a drug induced dysphoria from these medications.
I wanted to get back to you asap, but once the kids got home yesterday I forgot, I"m sorry. I hope I didn't offend you by asking on the meds board, but I knew scott was a wealth of knowledge and he would know if anyone if this combo could induce suicidal depression.
I hope this helps. Stay safe and stay well.
