Thanks for all the responses to my post. I'm very touched by the support and info you all give. Let me let you in on the latest. Ok, first of all let me start by saying , up until now I never say myself as depressed. I have always keep busy with positive things to do , like workingout, and golf, and meditating . After taking the Straterra Ive felt kind of down and have had negitive feelings . Nothing extreme, but not my normal self. But on retrospect , I see that maybe I might have a depression problem. You see I have been living with a depressed person for about 10 years(wife) , and I have always felt responsible to bring her up out of her depression. Maybe this is wearing on me , and what I feel is normal is really not. I have noticed I have started drinking somewhat more than I think is good for me , not extreme , but more than I feel is healthy for me and I have quit meditating. Its funny but thats when I started back considering medications for ADD . I talked to my Dr. and she wants me to try Wellbutrin, 100mgs twice a day. That was yesterday I recieved the Wellbutrin , but Im so apprehensive about it I just look at the pills and am afraid to take them. I just now read some post on Wellbutrin , and I will try it. I just havent been able to get the nerve up to take the plunge , after the straterra experience. You see I've never taken anything before now except the one time I took ritalin that affects the mind. I sorry if all this sounds selfabsorbed, I just thought my history sheds light on my medication experience and results. God Bless.
