I started on Strattera the 9th of this month, and so far so good! My moods have improved greatly, it doesn't help with the focusing much, but hey being happier and in a better mood sure beats nothing!

Did you find that in the beginning that it made you sleepy? It did me. About a half hour after taking it, I was ready for bed. I didn't really get any other benefits from it unfortunately. Glad to hear it's working well for you!

Yes it still is, I am hoping my DR will add a small amount of stimulant to it. I would hate to stop the stattera because I am glad to see the results improving with my moods.

My fiance started on Strattera about a month and a half ago, and he has had no side effects. The improvement in his ability to focus and prioritize is astounding... the psychiatrist was not positive about the ADD diagnosis -- he said that the reaction to the medication is one of the thing that helps him draw a conclusion. Really, he is like a new man -- he has gotten more done in the last month than he has in the last few years and doesn't waffle over decisions like he did before.
He is also taking Lexapro, if that is useful information. 40mg Strattera, 20mg Lexapro.
