Hi, My experiences are not like yours, but I switched from Strattera to Adderall.
The Strattera made me so tired, I honestly could not function at all. Driving was not even possible. My blood pressure had gone down 20pts systolic by day three at the low dosage in the starter pack. I honestly think that if I continued with it, i would have gone into a coma.
The Adderall, at a mere 10mg, made me a little sleepy, but not near as much as the Strattera. Also my blood pressure has only gone down a little bit. So, in my opinion, Strattera is more medicating than Adderall. Not a tic tac at all.
I am over a week into the Adderall now, and I think that anxiety is something my body or brain cannot create. I am so calm and collected on the Adderall, that I can’t believe it. I must have been a mess all my life, and just thought it was normal.
Good luck with the Strattera. I think we are all lab rats until the dosages and meds are right.
