Withdrawing off ADs vs withdrawing of Stimulants?

Posted by Meltingpot on February 4, 2015, at 11:33:59

Hi,
My Doctor has prescribed me a stimulant (Elvanse) also known as vyanse, to add to my seroxat but I'm really leary of taking a stimulant.
It's one thing to be reliant on an antidepressants, I can't get off it without going through hell and I'm not sure about adding yet another drug that can have withdrawal affects when coming off it.
It probably seems odd that I haven't even started it yet and I'm worried about coming off it but the hell I experience coming off SSRIs makes me very wary. How does coming off a stimulant compare with coming off an antidepressant? Does anyone know? If you are taking an antidepressant whilst coming off a stimulant does it help?
I'd really appreciate hearing anyone elses experiences.
