This med is ok. Don't take too high of a dosage or you could be falling asleep like me. I'm currently switching to the stimulants. Taking 60mg/daily as of now. Note that is DOES NOT stimulate dopamine, only norepinephrine.

So far...

Strattera is a God send. I have Adult ADD and, I have to say my concentration has improved. My forgetfullness can use some work, but other than that I feel the med does what it's suppose to. Sometimes when I get a new refills, i'll feel tired so, i'll take naps when I can, but that only happens when I start taking them. Once my body has gotten use to it, I don't feel sleepy anymore. Of course everyone's different so, what works for one person might not work for another.

Eric has been on Strattera for a long time. It seems to help him focus better without any noticeable side effects.

Strattera worked well for me. Minimal if any side effects. It also treated some of my depression. It allowed me to get a job and to resume a normal life.

i attempted suicide while on it even though i wasn't depressed at the time. turns out that was a possible side effect.
