Good question. I own a few meds I used to take that could potentially help, and I was thinking about messing up a bit with them for that day, but I'm not sure if it's a good thing to do with antidepressants. My current combo of antidepressants makes my body shake, for example, (it's not a small dose) I'm not sure if they change my anxiety because I'm not the most anxious person in the world to begin with - I just get overly stressed in some particular situations, like driving tests.
I honestly think it could work, I'm just not sure if I'm willing to do it and risk some side effects later. I follow the rules religiously :p lol

So your antidepressant makes you shaky. You take that once a day? Twice?
Test is when - morning or afternoon?
I'm so sure we're talking about screwing up your meds so your less shaky for driving.
Ultimately missing a single dose of any of these isn't going to screw you. Or throwing it off by some hours even. What are you taking? (Don't have to say) @Auri

Yes, I don't think it would be too bad, but I wouldn't want to encourage this on the forum LOL
I was thinking about not taking my current antidepressants and replacing them with one I used to take, actually. It had a very positive effect on my driving and definitely made me feel more relaxed.
I am taking 300mg Venlafaxine/Effexor in the morning for my mood and all, and 100mg Trazodone before sleeping for sleeping. The fact they're quite high doses for me makes it so I shake even if I forget about it one day. Perhaps I'd shake as a withdrawal effect as well... I would need to remove them on Thursday already or something, I don't know.
The antidepressant I want to replace that with is Mirtazapine, smallest dose.

It is the best one I've tried so far lol I don't want to stop and replace it though, just lower the dose on the day of my test. And I will go 225mg instead of 300 anyway cause that didn't make such a difference, it's too much. Thank you for your message
