O.K FM got here first : ), but my question is similar (though highly unorganized). So if I may piggy back on her post...
I posted a misery-filled rant on med board already. You're welcome to read the weepy details. What I want here are the humble opinions of the brains that lurk here--feel free to simplify language and terms (please).
I know dexedrine lit up my brain--pleasure, desire, emotion--well, o.k. a little pressure and anxiety too, but for the first time I thought maybe this was how normal, healthy people feel. Yes, It releases dopamine.
(Why do some depressions seem to only respond when stimulants are added?)
Is long term stimulant use harmful?
Can I take mirapex and recoup some dopamine effect?
Some of you with experience and knowledge, can you write or babble me? I've read some--I just feel like I'm not understanding something essential to my condition and treatment. I'm ready to entertain all opinions!
