I have taken Dex in low doses, from only 2.5mg twice a day to 20mg in divided doses. I've taken it along with high dose clomipramine, which is an SRI in its own right. My experience is that the impressive initial effects of Dex waned fast due to tolerance. After some weeks, motivation and concentration wouldn't improve as much, although mood would still be lifted substantially. Dex is a subtle drug, but be assured that it will bring you down when the drug leaves your system. The prospect of tolerance, decreased effectiveness and dependency is what made me quit the drug recently.
Current meds: clomipramine 225mg, fluvoxamine (Luvox) 50mg, methylphenidate 30-90mg, flupentixol 1mg. PRN: oxazepam 5-20mg or other benzo's.
