For ADHD "I started one of my daughters on Qelbree 200 mg 3 weeks ago, and everything seems great except for the fact that she is now super emotional. She cries at the drop of a hat over nothing. It has treated her ADHD symptoms, but this is hard on all of us. This medicine is the best one that she’s been on that controls her ADHD symptoms by far."

For ADHD "Qelbree has caused me to suffer from nasty side effects. I am usually asleep within two hours of taking it, so it is best taken at night, however, it made my insomnia worse. I have had horrible mood swings, feel like I black out at night, and my sensitivity to sound, smell, and touch has soared. It's actually one of the worst things I've ever been given for this condition. It's virtually impossible to do my work and has taken a toll on all my relationships."

For ADHD "I feel like this is a good fit for me, and I am on day 17. I had to restart a bipolar depression medicine called Lamictal soon after starting this to help me feel less depressed. There are a lot of side effects and weird feelings in the first two weeks, but now I feel a lot better more often. Unlike Adderall and Strattera, this feels like something I can take every day for the rest of my life, God willing. I am lucky and grateful that my state insurance covers this medicine 100%. I find it easier to talk to people on the phone, at least. My anxiety is still really bad in person. I don't feel too far from the good qualities of my unmedicated self when I take this. Insomnia is worse, and this has decreased the effectiveness of sleep aids of all kinds. I have more of a problem waking up in the morning so far. I am male and experienced erectile dysfunction when I first started 100 mg, but it feels like it's returning, plus more interest in sex. I am taking the lowest dose right now."
