Wellbutrin and Strattera are two ADD meds that aren't controlled substances."
To winged cat et al.:
I took Wellbutrin for several months a little over a year ago, hoping it would help with ADD symptoms as well as depression, and the only improvement ADD-wise I noticed is I stopped my compulsive shopping -- caused me to miss some real bargains, too (LOL). As for getting things done and projects finished, I just vegged in bed reading all weekend, with the only difference from my unmedicated state being that I didn't feel guilty about it!
