"i was a happy but chaotic woman with adhd. i am looking for a substitute for ritalin because although it worked miracles for my lack of attention an organizing skills it eventually wore me out. my new neurologist suggested strattera (80 mg/day ). at first it made me very tired. after a few weeks strattera changed me into an emotional wreck. crying every minute for no reason. i&#039;m still in hospital. i&#039;m so tired of trying something new and hoping it will make the fog in my head disappear. but we&#039;re back to square one. no more strattera fore me..."
