In reply to b/c of your anxiety you'd be worse off on Adderall (nm), posted by 3 Beer Effect on June 14, 2002, at 0:22:39
I have ADD, anxiety (with occasional panic attacks), and mood swings. However the treatment of ADD usually requires a stimulant while the treatment of anxiety usually involves benzos. Wouldn't these cancel each other out? What am I supposed to do as I'm bothered by both? Also, I've tried Adderall, but it just gave me headaches and made my eyes feel as if they were bulging out of my head. I've tried Ritalin without those symptoms, but I wasn't sure it did much to help. And finally I've tried Wellbutrin, which made me really short-tempered and sleep-deprived, though it did help my concentration. Anyone have any suggestions? My husband and I are both at the ends of our respective ropes.
