    From what I know, when first starting the medication, it can cause a decrease in energy and cause you to be really sleepy. With time, it should get better, but the energy is probably still going to be less than it was before starting the medication. I work at a kid's mental health clinic and hear the doctors talking about the medicaiton a lot. I'm no expert though.

    Have you tried any other methods before the medication?
