You actually like Strattera? I went on that stuff for a month and it was the worst feeling ever. It felt like a gun pressed up against the back of my brain all the time, I pretty much wanted to die.
Ritalin and traditional stimulates on the other hand are always great but I build up a tolerance quickly. (Currently I just use various caffeine sources to concentrate.)
- pmiller2 17y agoIf you were only on the Strattera for a month and felt like you "wanted to die," you were probably started at too high a dose. They come in doses as low as 5mg.

- blueben 17y agoFor the same reason there are dozens of NSAIDS and pain killers. Humans are complex systems, and complex systems exhibit complex behaviors including differing reactions to similar inputs.
