If I were to try any drug other than the ones I'm already on I'd try amfetamines

I'm not advocating for any but yuck, you should reconsider that one in particular, it is profane. And many people manage to burn a diode with it long before they hurt themselves in a meaningful enough manner to dissuade them to stop increasing the dosis. Racy thoughts are especially bad in anxious people - I can guarantee that I know nothing that makes me as psychotic as amphetamines.

As someone who used to take amphetamines, I can relate. I was switched to atomoxetine (Strattera) two weeks ago solely because the amphetamines would amplify the psychosis (mostly intrusive thoughts) that was brought on by stress. Now I have to take quetiapine (Seroquel) at night just to get the brain to shut up so that I can sleep. I know it's for my own good, but I wish I could stop being reliant on antipsychotics. It feels wrong that I'm deliberately shutting my brain off; that I'd override my own self-preservation instincts. I'm not 'living in the moment', I'm living day-by-day, hour-by-hour, hoping that tomorrow isn't as bad as today.

I'm soapboxing about my own problems. Sorry.

@Dragdeler: Jesus dude, you must have been taking the wrong amphetamines.
It's actually a fairly broad class of thing, y'know...

Eyyy, I'm on quetiapine for bedtime too! Yeah, there's a massive stigma attached to antipsychotics, but god damn I've been sleeping a lot better.

Aren't you, like, twelve? Definitely shouldn't do that sort of thing that young.
Nor any recreational drugs, really.

His profile says 17.

Which in fairness is quite young, but not quite twelve.

(P.S. 17 isn't the best time, wait til 20/21, they're de best.

As for me? I don't do recreational drugs. Except for some rather light alcohol.
