Prozac 80 mg.......and a stimulant.

Posted by Sky Brite Line on July 30, 2008, at 10:23:23

I'm now prescibed the highest, dose i believe there is for prozac. My doctor said it will help some with anxiety, and eventually reduce the High Xanax dose.

I dont feel much diffrence, i feel more active. Its hard to descibe, but......taking a high dose of antidepressant, with a psychostimulant. Is that ok? Vyvanse is Lisdexamphetamine (slow-acting form of dexamphetamine) I take 140mg, so. I definetly am operating better. Than ever before.

Its just, in the past i've been diagosed Manic-depressive, hypomanic. And i stopped taking Abilify, and Seroquel. My doctor, dianosed me with mainly anxiety disorder, with attention problems. But in the past, i've been told i had a genetic condition called Asperger's (high activity, but odd behavior) - so it could be both.

Can this have a bad reaction with no mood stabilzer? I've been fine lately.....no "rush" of thoughts, or out of control thinking. My head always gets dizzy.....

Whats your opinion....and i would like to hear from you, really.

******Disclaimer: I realize im trying to get back on track and post to other's post, give advice to those who i know, Like i did for years, but im just getting back on feet again. So, i apolgoize for the post just asking a simple question.

Sky was Aspergers really confirmed or just speculation of that pdoc? Seemed you were doing better than after you heard that diagnosis. But you are picking yourself up again. And that is positive. Phillipa
