I mean, its possible...serotonin syndrome can happen even when someone is treated only w/ an SSRI. Crazy...
..but I don't think its common, even w/ an amphetamine. The combo is fairly common. Amphetamines are used in depression, ADD/ADHD, OCD, sometimes in Bipolar, rarely in stable schizophrenic people...
...maybe its because he's a professor? I mean, there's a huge difference between your work-a-day shrink and an academic shrink in how they approach things, or at least that's what I've heard and read. I dunno.
Ever tried a TCA? TCA+amphetamines probably would be less likely to cause serotonin syndrome. Just a thought...
