I am currently taking Concerta and weaning off generic Prozac in preperation for me starting Strattera.
I have noticed both good and bad while weaning off the Prozac but I am a bit nervous about completely doing away with the SSRIs. I am noticing that my anxiety and depression is increasing as I am weaning off but I feel that my lethargy and lack of motivation is decreasing as well as other Prozac related symptoms I felt increased when I started taking Concerta with the Prozac.
My doctor recommended I try a combination of Strattera for longer term relief of symptoms and Concerta to help give me a short term boost. I know Strattera is an NRI but I want to get some thoughts on how Cymbalta, an SNRI, can work for someone with ADHD with a comorbid mood disorder (anxiety and depression).
I believe Cymbalta has the best of both worlds in that it’s not just an NRI but I want to get more info on this. What do you think?
