In reply to Ativan - sortof OD - can anyone help?, posted by sjb on December 28, 2001, at 11:54:08
Are you taking 10mg of Adderal per day? If so, thats not very much. Your Celexa dose seems low too. Why don't you ask your pdoc to increase the Celexa to 40mg. Do you have a history of drug abuse or OD? That may be why your doc won't increase the Adderal, although if he's willing to give you any at all he should at least give you enough to do a decent job.
Good luck

> I found an old prescrition for Ativan that I had and took 8 - 10 pills at, I believe 5mg each. I can't find the bottle 'cause my husband hid it or threw it out. I was so distraught from over-the-top binge eating, esp on lbs of cookies. I couldnt stop crying hysterically. PDoc out of town but he wouldn't have been to helpful anyway. Really felt like wanting to die, but obviosly I couldn't at least taken what was left in the whole bottle but did not. Kept taking two at time but every minute or so. Finally did knock me out but here I am another day off from work. Sleeping, crying and eating. At it's such a beautiful day. Can't believe I went running a few days ago. Doublt if I could walk to mail box right not.

> BYW, I had been on 10 mg of Adderall and 20mg Celexa which really helped since November. But it's pooping, obviously and PDoc will not increase the Adderall which I thought was helping me a great deal with energy, happy moods, intelligence and socializaiton.
