Hi 10derHeart;
Thanks for your reply!
And wow....you describe it exactly!:
> Pretty amazing and wonderful med to quiet the brain and make you say, "you mean THIS is what other people's brains are like!!? [peaceful]" at 40 mg., but at 80 actually saw a *major* difference in all the things you mentioned.
>I have found it very difficult going back to the noise and confusion as the Strattera has increasingly stopped working - especially as I know now what it is like to have a 'quiet' mind :(
Yes, I have tried going up on the dose. Unfortunately, my body just doesn't seem to be able to tolerate it. Anything past 40mg turns me into a depressed (crying all the time, social recluse, dark thoughts, etc) pile of lead (can't move to save my life). I've tried this a couple of times to see if my body would adjust, but each time after a couple of weeks of this, it would just become unbearable!
I'm hoping the Reboxetine works! If it does, perhaps I can rotate it with Strattera (3 months on each) and maybe that will work.
I'm glad to hear that Strattera has been so helpful for you!!
Thanks again for your reply :)
