I've had ADD all of my life, but recently, I decided to see a psychiatrist about it (who will be known as "the shrinky-dink" from here on out). She prescribed me this new Strattera medicine, but I've been having some side effects from it, i.e. sleepiness, etc. She's advised me to start taking it at night before I go to bed, but also advised me not to take it today, and take it tomorrow night. Now I have this horrible headache.

Is anyone else on this med, and if so, do the side effects ever stop? Any help would be appreciated!

yea I have taken this before. I hated it. It did help me focus better, but the side effects were something I couldn't take. It made me not eat, gave me headaches, and I couldn't sleep either. no simulant....yea right. I do know ppl who do take it and it works for them. Sure didn't work for me!
