There is no such thing as a Stupid Question!
Don't be embarrassed of your curiosity; everyone has questions that they may feel uncomfortable asking certain people, so this place gives you a nice area not to be judged about asking it. Everyone here is willing to help.

They've both been prescribed, this is a more abstract inquiry
That makes me wonder why your doctor did not inform you properly.
About? What is the objective issue? I know I'm suggesting that I consider it duplicative but that doesnt necessrily mean I know anything relevant or am even correct?

As someone who was once medicated with Paxil (Paroxetine) and Ritalin (methylphenidate), a scenario of which is quite similar to yours, I do not recommend. I believe it left lasting effects on my body even though I stopped it a decade ago. Sadly, many (if not all) psychiatrists think of their patients as guinea pigs, unbothered by possible consequences of mixing different substances inside a person's organism.
Do you have some idea of the pharmacology behind what you're describing? Like serotonin syndrom or something
