I am having good results with Strattera (relief from lingering depression and anxiety) that prozac could not help. I also take Provigil and was still sleeping all the time. But, a big but, I only take 25mg of strattera and it has taken me at least 6 weeks to adjust. I still have a night here and there where I dont sleep well but I am not sleeping all day anymore and am getting alot accomplished that has needed doing for a long time. I tried to increase the strattera dose once and that put me in the bed. So 25 mg is very effective without the fatigue. I can't imagine taking the higher doses I read about. I am glad that I had read Jarod's take on it at "Crazy Meds" or I too would have gotten hosed and not be getting the relief from anergia and less than full remission from depression and anxiety. Oh, I have also been able to drop my provigil dose from 400 to 100mg.
