to go along with my lexapro for anxiety and panic attacks and wellbutrin for depression.
I did have a diagnosis of pmdd and was on prozac but it didn't seem to help. The lexapro doesn't seem to be doing much now but i do believe we can go from 10mg to 20mg. But i've heard people gain alot of weight from lex and i'm nervous. I've been trying to lose weight and succeeding for once.
Now that add is suspected and i've been placed on strattera i've been doing better but i still have a few days a month that i get real depressed and *****y and like the world is coming down on me. I like the strattera except i'm tired alot of the time. It's weird cuz i'll take my meds in the morning and feel great. A few hours later i'm feeling like i'm going through withdrawls. Then by 2:00pm i'm falling asleep. of course i can't afford to fall asleep. Then usually by 5:00 i'm alert again then by 7:00 i'm ready for bed and i crash by 8:00. I should add that i recently switched to wellbutrin xl. I hate this crap. I don't want to be a medicine cabinet for the rest of my life but it seems like i will be. I wish i could just get the right combo. any thoughts or experiences would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys.

Good Luck

how do you like strattera? I've been told by a friend with ADHD that it isn't a great drug and to stay clear of it...I've been on Adderall XR 25mg...at first it worked and now I feel like my body is too used to it and dosen't work as well as it used to.

Meds.

Can't live with'em.

Can't live without'em.

Strattera has worked quite well for me. Very few side effects, and significant improvement overall for me.

Try and keep in mind that what works for one person, may not work for others. What works for you may not works for your friends (and the other way around as well).
