I'm having bad side effects and don't have time till Friday to speak with my doctor. I gave Strattera a few days to see if they would go away but they got worse. So, I'm actually scared to take it tonight. I had planned to take it tonight to see if I would just sleep through the worst of them to give it more of a chance to fix itself!
Are there any withdrawal symptoms that I need to worry about. On Friday or Thur. morning even I'll call my doctor. Ask him about what we should do now, if I can just get through the side effects or can we try something right away or when I have an appointment in Feb. wish me luck!

I have never heard of taking Strattera at night but perhaps your pdoc has good reason.
When I stopped taking Strattera I just stopped cold turkey without problem but then again it wasn't helping me when I took it anyway time.

Well, that was if it made me tired after taking it in the morning. I just thought since they seemed worse during the day if I went to night I would sleep through them. Anyways, I've been on it nearly 4 months and well I was scared enough about not taking it and having withdraw that I took it. Plus, my boyfriend told me that I should take it till I can have a word with the doctor.
I agreed only because I've been through withdrawal with other drugs, it wasn't fun!

it's a non-stimulant, it should not have any serious side effects and many people have stopped it cold turkey. If you only took it for a few days you should be ok. Tell your doc it didn't work and may be he will give you real adhd meds that actually work

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.
