Well, it "worked" as I really didn't want to be placed on stimulants! I had some bad side-effects from them, still I might ask if we could try a low dose till summer as they do work. I need something to work till summer as I'm in school so I'm thinking of asking about Ritalin as I know it worked best till my body was use to it when I was 15. Still this was 20 years ago! I don't know but maybe just a good fall back till classes are over with for the summer.

As for Strattera while on it it can have some serious side-effects which I've been having! One was nausea and last night I ended up throwing up in the middle of the night. Woke-up feeling like I was going to die! Anyways I was waiting them out to see if they could be worked through and now I'm at the point where I need to address it.
