Hi,
Can anyone help? I suffer from moderate depression (with a particular lack of interest in things), GAD and social phobia. Over the last few months I have been taking Ephedrine 35mg either once or twice a day (totaling 70mg per day) depending on how I'm feeling. I tend to take it about 4 or 5 days a week but never every day of the week.
I find it really useful in giving me a 'feel-good' effect - I guess very slightly euphoric. Whatever, it does help my depression and helps me to become more alert and interested in the things around me.
I live in the UK and buy Ephedrine over the internet (I think it's still legal in the UK). My doctor was very dismissive when I asked him about it, but anything he hasn't heard of or has never prescribed he is always very critical of - just to cover himself.
Can anyone tell me if Ephedrine is safe? If so, at what dosage is it safe? Is it addictive? Does it have any long-term mental health effects as other stimulants do, such as Amphetamines?
Any information would be gratefully appreciated!
Thanks!
