    Definitely don't do it. I don't have personal experience but combining one mind altering substance with another can't end well. From reading other people's experiences, it does not seem like something you should try.

    I definitely think so. Take a look at my thread here:

    http://forum.grasscity.com/apprentice-tokers/541258-serious-panic-attacks-when-smoking.html

    Basically when I was on my two different anti depressants, I would get crazy panic attacks that would feel like I was going to die any second.

    If you're on anti's, I'd suggest smoking just enough to get buzzed (trust me, you do NOT want to be stoned if you're going to have a bad interaction). If you even start to feel flushed or bad, stop and you'll have to decide between MJ and the anti's

    Works fine hahah just don't take too many and don't smoke too much.

    I really don't advocate any pills you don't need though..

    almost every person that i have smoked with that was on anti depressants had an bad experience mostly having panic attacks. They are usually fine though if they only get to a certain level of buzzed.

    Ha well for me at least I was on Wellbutrin and now I'm on Lexapro and I can honestly tell you that I smoke about once or twice a day. I'm fine with it but if you're worried about mixing the two I would suggest don't do it. It may not affect me at all but it may affect you. If you do decide to do it just be cautious.
