Tonight it hit me. I don't know exactly how, but my regularly borderline anxiety has skyrocketed these past two days.
I'm trying a new stimulant for my narcolepsy, but unfortunately its having the same effects as all the other stimulants I've tried.

But tonight things escalated with multiple different events, until finally I couldn't take it anymore. I had to leave my math class and (you probably know how this goes) have a full on panic attack in the bathroom where no one can see.

Dear heart,
Stop threatening to explode...just do it already!

But it didn't end there. Oh no. So I took two Clonazapams (I'm only supposed to take one) and a strong over the counter chill pill.

I can't even walk straight. This does not feel right. My mind is a big fuzz ball and yet I'm overwhelmed with homework that's pastdue and midterms coming this week that I'm not near ready for. I need an oxygen mask. I need a distraction to keep me from doing any of the several stupid things that have crossed my mind. I need...
Might have gone a little too far popping pills. But what was/am I supposed to do?

My roommate thinks I'm crazy at the moment.
Yeah, no. I am.

What's the amphetamine? If you take more then necessary. You will probably come down with a benzodiazepine or pregabalin, gabapentin or any GABA enhancers. Huge word of caution, never use a beta-blockers like propranolol or metoprolol while on a an amphetamine at a high dose. Your health care professionals and pdocs know this, hopefully. It can cause serious cardiac problems.

You haven't mentioned the name of the stimulant and the amount you took. So, I am reading into a scrambled book!

Also, what's your "chill pill"?
If you want to talk further. The clonazepam was to try to steady you out .I assume by that token either the prescriber gave you to much stimulant and has you on a tranquilizer (benzo)- GABAa subunit bonders together.
Or you are self medicating by choosing what and how much to take?
Here we go. Stimulants cause a over fluctuation of DA and NE by back into the nucleus in very strong ways. They bind to DAT, NET, VMATs in the cells and cause the basic reuptake into the cells to reverse. That the amounts at the frontal nucleus release amps. are opened a new channel to release the pressure. Flooding the synapse, so that is why they have made slow release amps. for two reasons the FDA and pharma money. I do believe they are much less abusable and for those with ADD/ADHD past 18 pushing imho are the old school. Except the slow release but there are other less drugs without the tolerance and addicting drugs coming up after passing approval and patents. Pubmed, medscape and full studies are good. I always say the closer to our time, usually the better.There are many to check out and get lost in, but
Meta Analysis= FTW !

Good luck!

OP instead of Klopin see if your pdoc can prescribe you something faster acting. If it acts sooner you may not need the chill pill. I take Klopin everyday, but I have Ativan PRN. It usually kicks in around 10 minutes for me.

Ativan takes about 45 minutes for me, unless I dissolve it under my tongue. It's very aggravating if I'm freaking out in public and need to stop it fast.

Xanax is the fastest for me. It takes about 20 minutes and that's with it being swallowed whole.
