Totally. At least Strattera is a reuptake inhibitor, so it's moving in the same direction as a stimulant with less of the negatives. I do not recommend taking an agonist, I don't know what my psychiatrist was thinking.
I've been trying methylphenidate and it's really nice, it doesn't have as much dependency or falloff risks as something like Adderall.
Maybe guanfacine is just particularly unhelpful.
