Thanks for the input! I'm glad I'm not the only one who experienced this. I've since decreased my dose to try to help with side effects and it seems to be working better.
I've read recently that if you don't have enough norepinephine available in the brain, the strattera then goes after MAO. This would make one feel effects of lower levels of neurotransmitters such as serotonin, norepinephrine, and dopamine while the strattera is in the system. I think that was my problem and my natural reaction was to crave foods to increase serotonin levels in my brain. That's basically my conclusion.
