I am baffled. I started strattera (18mg) approx. six weeks ago for depression and noticed a marked improvement within two days. The following 5 weeks were blissful.....no depression, little anxiety, and I was sure I finally conquered the depression. For the past week, the depression has returned, along with a lack of motivation to do anything. I typically experience a worsening of my symptoms one week prior to my cylce, which is where I am now. What I don't understand is that this did not happen to me last month while on the strattera. Should I ask my doc to double the dose? For you long term users, has anyone experienced that "high" fading after a month? Any insight would be appreciated.
I knew this was too good to be true.
