New Medication

My psychiatrist recently started me on atomoxetine HCL... Strattera... I still don't understand the effects I should feel.... I'm still stuck in bed and I feel it was to help with that but meh.... I don't know what I should be feeling so I feel nothing... Meh nothing different... I will give it 4-8 weeks from when I started if I see nothing I don't see the point of keep going....

Hi. I’m in pharmacy school and can give you a deeper insight on how Straterra works if you like? That way you give the med the trial it needs to start making a difference.

Strattera is a second-line drug after stimulants. Stimulants can be exhausting as they give you drop after the main effect.

Strattera takes time to start working, but I couldnt stand it. It took all my emotions, really. I felt very weird like zombie, so I quit. I hope your case will be better, as we are all different! Keep trying!

Can't wait to see how it's gonna turn out for me... I'm not really emotional so outside of anger... And from time to time excitation about new things and such... I have a hard time emotionally processing.

Sounds like what I’m taking Wellbutrin for … which works pretty well for me.
