Augmentation with Amphetamine-like Drugs?

Posted by Libby on June 13, 2000, at 11:57:30

I believe it was Andrew B. who posted that dopamine receptors were affected by anti-psychotic drugs like Zyprexa. What is affected by augmentation with amphetamine-like drugs like Dexedrine & ProVigil.
I feel good on Effexor/Zyprexa except that I feel
somewhat insulated... That is, I feel like I'm
floating on a cloud created by the meds... With
the Effexor alone, I have serious concentration
problems, regardless of dose...
My husband and I have often joked that if the doc 1would just write me a prescription for speed, I'd be fine. It was a joke based in past efforts to self-medicate. Is it wrong (or dangerous) to assume
that this might be a good approach for me?
