> I haven't taken it yet. I guess I'm a little nervous about it. Yesterday I started getting the familiar depressive thoughts / feelings again for the first time in weeks, so I popped 1 mg of buprenorphine. It took care of them very well, I'm happy to say, but I wonder if my recent stable good mood is actually a delicate balance that the stimulant could throw out of whack.

I take Concerta 54 mg/day. When i feel i have built a tolerance for it i switch to Modafinil(branded Modiodal here, Provigil in the USA) for a week then i go back to Concerta. They aren't causing any cross tolerance and even though i prefer the methylphenidate to the modafinil it's a pretty subtle difference for me actually. I also take Lexapro which i'm gonna switch to Cymbalta soon hopefully. Depending on how well Cymbalta works for me i might go off the bupe or if it works fine in comb i'll keep it. I also still have a small dose of klonopin left 0.5mg/day which i should have dropped long time ago but i just haven't felt like going through bdz wd's. I would very much like to be on only cymbalta and a stimulant(if needed) and maybe sometimes a xanax for very anxious days.Why did i just rabble my entire drug cocktail? I don't know. But now i did it anyway so i'll just post it, hehe.
