My Dr refused to prescribe me stimulants, he said I will likely end up in mental hospital. But I am asking him about Strattera, its not a stimulant. Users here said it made them psychotic but I still want to try it, idk.

I wish my Dr would prescribe me that. My family Dr refused to prescribe me adhd meds. I told him to refer me to a psychiatrist, will see what my pdoc think of it.
