The only trouble with this casserole dish is that every time you try to move it from the oven to the counter, you just slip and drop it and it always somehow lands on an uninhabited planet with no working engines or communicator.

I bought 2 of these dishes and lost about 11 of them this way

I was on Strattera (atomoxetine) some years ago. It worked very well for me for about five years then kind of stopped making much difference. However even after I went off of it the symptoms seemed noticeably easier to deal with than they were before (and still do to this day), so I still count it as a win.

Now I will say though that Strattera is a bit harder to judge than the stimulants, as its action is longer term; you take it daily but it has to build up over weeks, so you don't get that immediate feedback like with the stimulants.

I found that for me, Strattera made it hard to sleep if I took it at night, and caused stomach upset if I took it too close to caffeine in the morning, but mid-day proved the sweet spot for me.
