"first of all, unless strattera is seriously messing with your brain, you should really be patient and keep taking it to see if it really works. i thought several times about quitting, but since i have been fighting depression and adhd my whole life, why not give it another month to take effect? i started a month at 25mg, a month at 40mg, and about 2 weeks at 80mg. wow, have things really taken off for me! i am getting so much done at home and am motivated to get a job again! the one downside is the cost. seriously? my insurance won&#039;t cover it so my 80mg prescription was almost $500! to combat nausea, take with food always! it may interact with vitamins too, so take those at the opposite time of day. most side effects went away after 2 wks."
