Anyone here had Strattera (Atomextine) before?

[Oldmate]

Hi all,

I've been prescribed Strattera (Atomoxetine) for my freshly minted diagnosis of ADHD. Has anyone taken it before? What effect did it have on your HPPD?

[Onemorestep]

Atomoxetine, for those who don’t know, is a norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor. 

 

Ive taken it before, after hppd (albeit it was 2 years after onset). I didn’t have a problem with it but was very sensitive. I only needed 10mg. 

 

After a a period of tome, it can make you feel antisocial and robotic.

 

norepinephrine in high levels is associated with chronic fatigue and increased susceptibility to post traumatic stress. People with naturally high norepinephrine have a hard time relaxing and letting go. 

 

It it can be a useful drug. I certainly don’t think it would cause any permanent problems, bur do your due diligence with research.

 

Start small
