In reply to 3 beers - any thoughts?, posted by DiscoPuppy on May 13, 2002, at 17:23:53
i agree with 3beers and he has great advice (as you know since you sought him out :)).
keep in mind, though, that some people do tolerate stims better than ad's. but perhaps it's just bipolars, and that's the difference.
i still think it's worth a try, esp. if you go for the welbutrin sr and it continues to cause anxiety.
adding a benzo - i forgot that many folks do that. good idea.
key words to get a stim -- the things you posted are fine - unable to focus/concetrate. lack of energy and motivation. and stims do provide a small ad effect. these are all legit reasons and if your pdoc disagrees, you might try another. you can't get ahold of any more stims that he/she wants you to anyway. don't know why there's so much controversy over stims when one can commit suicide with otc sleeping pills...
bizarre to me.
good luck.
