I'm not but I can't help asking: How's your anxiety level? Both of those drugs *can* cause anxiety (although they certainly don't in everyone).

Yes, I take 400mg of Wellbutrin SR and 5mg of Adderall XR for inattentive / limbic AD/HD. Many inattentive ADDers find a Wellbutrin / stimulant combo the best treatment.

i have never had problems with anxiety..in fact the complete opposite. without the dexedrine i experience extreme fatigue and can't get out of bed..so anxiety was never an issue when trying these meds. was on zoloft which made me lethargic but been off that for two weeks and wanna give a prozac a try again since it seems to be the most activating of the ssri's..
