First Day on Straterra: whoa!Just thought I'd drop in and "report" on my experience the first day of taking Straterra. As I wrote earlier, the first couple of hours consisted of very slight queasiness and very slight dizzyness. Soon after that, a kind of a "high" set in. I was just sitting at the computer for most of the day. Around 6pm I became quite tired and napped on the couch for about an hour and a half. I still felt a bit queasy before sleeping, but when I woke up, that was gone. Also, upon waking I felt a bit spacey. Now I'm feeling pretty much back to "normal."
I have a small pile of projects on my desk that I could have done today, but I didn't. Things like paying bills, organizing some records, etc. I had a professional Organizer come in to help me get my office straightened up before we put our house on the market, and at least I'm not feeling overwhelmed by the mess at the moment (because there is no mess). But as usual I'm putting things off, not wanting to get started, etc. I don't know if a drug can help me with that -- they say it's possible! We'll see.
I'm almost reluctant to try this again tomorrow, except that I know that people have said that the side effects subside. So I'm going to keep trying, and I'll post again tomorrow how the second day goes.
Regards,
