Straterra takes a while to start working (about 2 weeks) and instead of kicking you in the pants for motivation it helps you steer. It is working for me.

Thank you for your feedback. I was on adrenal for a few years, they have it in short supply so I've had a hard time without add meds... I'm in AA, I abused amphetamines, cocaine, alcohol and other **** in the past... Been clean and sober now 24 years, so it helps accepting my situation now... I was prescribed Strattera but my insurance does not pay much for it.. I was on Strattera and on Concerto years ago... Concerts was the best, followed by Strattera, been also on Ritalin caused me a lot of anxiety... I will continue to revisit my situation and see what happens...
