So I’ve been taking vilazadone (vibryd) for the past couple months at 30 mg and it has worked great for my depression.
Alongside this, I also started to take an ECA (ephedra/caffeine/aspirin) stack for
Thermogenic reasons.
I noticed that if I took more ephedra and aspirin I would get a semi euphoric kind of feeling and kinda got hooked and kept upping my
Doses. I was taking rather high amounts for a couple weeks.
The last time
I took it it felt like the euphoric effect had stopped. In retrospect it was obviously a bad idea but the euphoric effect kinda blindsided me and I wasn’t getting side effects.
I know ephedra is an MAOI to some degree.
Anyways, now it feels like the vibryd has completely stopped working for me and I’m back to square one with my
Brain fog, depression, and anehdonia.
Im ofc going to stay away from the ECA combo now. Been off it three days.
I’m just trying to understand why I feel like such shit now. Did I fry out my receptors in some way from combining the two? Should I just give it some
Time and the vibryd should start working again the longer I’m off the ECA stack?
Just a little scared here. I hope I return to normal the longer I’m away from the ECA.
Anyone have any thoughts on what might’ve happened neurochemically and what I could do to get feeling better again?
Thanks!
