If you stimulate noradrenaline and add a GABA agonist , do they ancel each other out? Has anyone had succes on this combo? What type of problems would this be helpful for?
Basically - stuff like provigil makes me more alert but causes lots of anxiety, wondering if adding a benzo would create a synergy that would be differant than the two by themselves?
Kinda like Red Bull + Vodka? - kidding.. : )
Thanks

maybe a combo...like straterra+benzo. or edronax+lyrica. MAOIs I imagine would affect both, but not selectively.

Well if you're prone to lots of anxiety, it wouldn't be surprising that Provigil causes a lot of symptoms.Its basically like my occasional use of regular coffee to get me stimulated to go to the gym or something, yet I take a fair dose of Valium.
You sort of crank it up, then need to put out the fire, and rinse and repeat. At some point it is a zero sum gain of polypharmacy.
