In reply to Nardil and Dex, posted by Declan on July 24, 2005, at 18:15:05
I'm very med tolerant and have been known to double the PDR's recommended doses and felt nothing, not even serious side effects. With the dexedrine, 20-30mg's made me jumpy, jittery, kina' twitchy, but then when it was bumped up highr, I experinced the calmest peace I've ever know.
My mind stopped onbsessing, was slow and clairvoyant, lost the anxiety, and for the first time I felt love and the beautiful experience of sharing it. It made me believe that if an AD can get you out of a deep dark hole, you CAN take it the rest of the way. Earlier I thought meds alone could save and continue to save me.
I am worried that the dex will start becoming ineffective and that raising the dose won't help. I'm currently looking into herbs and some unusual combinations to keep the damn nardil working. My life can't start until i'm in remission. I'm paralyzed at this point. I greatly appreciate any suggestions and the advice of those before.
**I might also add that you cannot imagine the difference between depression and remission in my experience. It is such a profound difference to be considerd miraculous. From a 1 to a 10, and even more so. It's astonishing, stunning, and difficult to believe. Thanks again......
