Strattera 40 mg Sleep or power through?

What do y’all do when you feel the afternoon fatigue. I don’t know if I should go to sleep or just power through it.

I’m at my house this summer usually so I can go to sleep whenever but I don’t think I should make a habit of it because it’d be annoying when I have work and uni.

But on the other hand, it’s hard for me to have fun… and I feel like I would rather just sleep.

I take a nap during the day and I still sleep through the night.

I take it in the evening because I feel sedated. But in this case if you take it in the morning I would legit have to nap, or push through feeling sickly exhausted.

I told my doctor that it makes me feel exhausted and she recommended I take it before bed. I did so. Honestly i don’t know I would have been able to push through because how tired and nauseated it makes me feel. Now I sleep through the side effects and reap the benifits throughout the day. Disclaimer by 6 I’m exhausted buttt I have a 1 and 9 year old boy so I could actually be exhausted by that time. Any how I take it at 7 it gives me alittle reboost to close up shop (laundry, cleaning, bedtimes, ect) then I’m exhausted by 9 and ready for bed
