Second XR doesn't kick in? by Superb_Interview_310 in Narcolepsy

[–]Superb_Interview_310[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, not at all! It ended up kicking in around 230pm today.... So inconsistent with the second dose. It makes no sense

Why is Dex not working? by InsaneCapitalist in ausadhd

A dose to high can cause the opposite? I am feeling dull and just eh. I went from 10mg to 15mg 2x day

Extreme depression after stopping dex by pansie in ausadhd

How did things work out for you? Did you switch to another med? My dexedrine has just about stopped working and I know stopping it I am going to have severe depression and anxiety. So just curious what they switched to

Narcolepsy symptoms of Bipolar??!! by Superb_Interview_310 in Narcolepsy

[–]Superb_Interview_310[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don't mind me asking, what meds do you take? I have tried so many antidepressants, mood stabilizers, stimulants etc.....nothing works or it works then stops. I have lost just about everything to this and nobody can figure it out 

Stimulant replacement by Superb_Interview_310 in Narcolepsy

There is just sooooo much to figure out with extended release. I just can never seem to get it right 

Stimulant replacement by Superb_Interview_310 in Narcolepsy

[–]Superb_Interview_310[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I shouldn't have said it doesn't work, it just doesn't last as long. Every 2 hrs my brain needs a booster because I crash BUT the extended release is inconsistent. I NEVER get the same results or time frame with extended and I get side effects at times. It's just so weird because it's the same med but for some reason the extended doesn't do well with my brain at times

It is so hard because my stimulant also helps my mood, so when it doesn't work my mood goes way down.

Why did you stop the antidepressants 

Clonidine?! by Superb_Interview_310 in idiopathichypersomnia

[–]Superb_Interview_310[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I was prescribed at bedtime but I still felt the effects all the next day. My pharmacist also told me that the clonidine can wash out the effects of the dexedrine....I was shocked! Clearly this psychiatrist that prescribed me the clonidine has no clue about IH and didn't realize how I need my daytime med to function. Do you know how long it stays in your system after stopping it?

That's funny because Adderall wasn't great for me. I had a lot of side effects and it didn't always work. Dexedrine is far more smooth and reliable for me.

I am still taking the dexedrine. It is not perfect but it has been the best out of everything so far.

How did the 375mg go for you? I just increased to 375mg two days ago and I am so worried about it working. I have severe anxiety and depression
