I’ve taken it before as well. A few times, actually. Never did anything except make me nauseous. That’s why I took it a few times… kept increasing the dose. Got nothing.

My cousin barfed his brains out, though. That was at least fun to watch.

Not pain medication. Strattera and Lexapro.

Were you suffering from serotonin syndrome? That is a really dangerous thing, actually. My wife had it once and it wasn’t pretty. She got it from an SSRI and Ashwagandha.
