Has anyone here who is also diagnosed with ADHD, along with schizoaffective disorder, used the medication Strattera? What was your experience with it? Did it help?

I finally talked to my psychiatric nurse about my ADHD-C diagnosis that I received a few years ago. She informed me that their clinic doesn't prescribe medications in the class of Adderall and such. She also told me that she needs to research an appropriate dosage for me based on my weight (because certain psych medications upset my sensitive gi system at "normal" dosages).

I am re-entering a hectic college major soon and need to get my adhd symptoms under control. I am a bit scared to try the medication. According to my consumer-facing readings, it can worsen psychosis (and cause/trigger gastrointestinal upset).

Not looking for medical advice at all, but I would love to hear your experiences while taking this medication. Thank you!
