> I spoke with him tonight and he said that if I do start straterra and it doesn't work, I'd have to go through yet another multiple-week washing out period before I could even begin the MAOI. He also said straterra has as much a chance of agitating me at the beginning as any med with antidepressant qualities. He said that MAOI's are used commonly along with stims, as those posts that Scott put up show (BTW, thanks so much for those posts, Scott-they've been very helpful). So, basically, I'm going to try to get some sleep, since I really haven't been sleeping at all lately, and he's going to send me literature on MAOI dietary restrictions & we will take it from there. Still considering both. I'll keep you updated. Thanks everyone,

Peter, you mentioned a multiple week washout. Are there meds you would be continuing while you washout the others? I figured you would stay on your Lamictal at least. Or is it just the Adderall you would have to drop and then add it back once you are on the Nardil? Just curious how your pdoc was going to handle the washout (what meds get stopped when, started when, etc.).
