Picked up my bottle today, and I’m starting tomorrow. I really hope it works, I’m so tired of being tired! I’ve only ever taken Focalin, and Adderrall twice recreationally. The Focalin was all over the place for me but I did not have any sort of schedule. One day no food, next day caffeine, next day food and no caffeine, etc. So I wasn’t able to tell if it was helpful, I just know on the days that I felt gacked out I did NOT like it.

Curious if anyone would want to share their experiences taking Strattera?

    I didn’t have the mental wherewithal to advocate for myself effectively at the time.

    I eventually ended up being prescribed Adderall, which I’ve been on for about a decade. At this point it’s sort of an as-needed medication. I feel like it helped me be able to strengthen my executive functioning muscles. It’s not that big deal if I go without it now. Like I don’t really take it in the summer because I’m not working (teacher).

      Being able to take ADHD medication as needed would be ideal for me. Seems like Adderall is the most effective for people, but I have to jump through the hoops of trying several others first
