Atomoxetine/Strattera anxiety and depression
Hi,
I would like to hear experiences if someone experienced severe anxiety and depression in the beginning (as a side effect), but had success after it?
I am on day 10 with atomoxetine. Started with 25mg but I got so anxious we decided to lower it to 10mg 4 days ago. I have tried concerta and elvanse before, and both got me over stimulated and anxious. I have also felt quite depressed since starting atomoxetine.
I got diagnosed with ADHD a few months ago, and have also GAD and panic disorder. Also suffer with social anxiety. I had so much hope that non-stimulant would be a better option for me, but somehow it feels very stimulating as well.
I am also on 5mg Brintellix / Trintellix. Could not stand a bigger dose as I am very sensitive overall.
Thanks for sharing any experiences!
