Default Re: Strattera(ADHD med) making me feel like crap

Update: Got the prescription. Doc said that what was happening to me(painful urination and dizziness) just happens sometimes with Strattera and that we all had left to try as a result was stimulants.

He put me on 30 mg a day of Adderall XR to be taken in the mornings and he gave me 20 mg of dexedrine(more pure adderall is how he explained it) to be taken as a pick me up in the early evening hours. Well this combo pretty much makes it impossible to sleep and completely killed my appetite. Sounds like a good thing but not sure that it is. Upside is that I can concentrate like a [censored] madman on the most boring [censored] ever. I just read a page from a high school biology textbook and I could recite it word for word if necessary. That's how intense this stuff helps me concentrate.
