Strattera Withdrawal, not so cool


...feels like all the anti-depressants i ever took. no difference there. why should the least popular, least explored of three receptors be different in function?

one spectacular experience, albeit really uncomfortable, is a sort of weird feeling of a lightning bolt going through your brain. it's not hot, but it vibrates while it's in the depths of your brain matter and sizzles out towards the edges.

was there a breakthrough that led you to stop taking straterra? how are you and your doctor managing the withdrawal?

no breakthrough, no quitting. lately it's been making me nauseous for about an hour each day after taking it. some days i'm just not up for that so i don't take it and then i get brain zaps.

not really good.

Or it is sometimes fun just to say "porridge"

I am going to say it very many times starting right now.
