Re: Not sure if it's me or the ADHD but I hate morning

[Anonymous]

I have always found it hard to get up in the morning. Now that I know I have ADD, I think that is the reason. Life is harder for us, and when I first wake up it’s like I don’t want to face all the challenges of the day. The good news is that once I got on the right meds (Zoloft, Adderall and Strattera) I don’t feel that way as much. My solution is to take 40 mg of Strattera and 50 mg of Zoloft just before going to bed. It makes a lot of difference in my attitude upon waking the next morning. Instead of dreading all the things I have been procrastinating about, I feel more ambitious and actually anxious to do things. I’m not 100% yet, but much better.

By the way, I know Strattera is expensive and most insurance doesn’t cover it. If you are lower income, look at the Lilly Cares program and you might be able to get it free from the manufacturer. I do.
