I'm going to try Strattera for ADHD. I will start low with 18mg. I am pretty sure it won't work. Wellbutrin also didn't work. But at least I can say I tried it.
I am thinking about wether it would make sense to add a SSRI cause I also have depression. Wellbutrin + SSRI is a common combo. But I dont know about Strattera + Lexapro.
The thing is I dont want to have to go to my doctor and discuss every little thing with him. I only see him every 8 weeks. Since I still have left over Lexapro at home which I tried in the past and didn't work for depression I could theoretically experiment a bit on my own and try Strattera + Lexapro. But I'm not sure.
But on the other hand it makes no difference if I simply experiment on my own or wether I ask my doc first. I mean if I should get any side effects it's the same situation. It makes no difference is I discussed it with my doc or not.
I could make much faster progress if I started to experiment more on my own instead of always having to wait for the next appointment.
