I’m taking welbutrin and it’s worked well for me but I’ve heard good things about straterra too. Pretty life changing for someone that’s always just coped (not entirely successfully).

I’ve been on Wellbutrin too for a while and it’s totally improved things I would like to mix it with one of the stims preferably the most tame one

How long did wellbutrin take to have effect for you guys? I’m at 150mg for 3 weeks and not feeling much

For me it was about 4 days, but I’m actually taking 300mg now. The 150mg I seemed to metabolize too quickly.
