I think that he meant, makes you hyper - but manic can look like hyper, so it's hard to draw the line for some people. It could be the case that it was just too high of a dose, as has been said before, so good thing that you're getting it checked out!

So after the 16th I'll follow up on this thread let everyone know what's going on.

Good luck! Wellbutrin and Strattera are the main non-habit-forming options, so generally a good starting place. I hope they figure out what's going on and find a way to help!
