Diagnosed ADHD-C for years, I had massive anxiety in law school on the short acting adderall instead of just trying other ways to treat anxiety or the longer acting med, I asked my doc for Lexapro 10 mg instead. What felt like life-saving relief and ultimately made me look healthier (weight gain) in certain aspects, destroyed me mentally and dumbed me down.
I was taken advantage of by my ex-gf who was few years younger and abusing some sort of drug under my nose while I didn't realize. My PCP sent me to see a psych who isn't convinced of Bipolar 2 but suspects it may be co-morbid with my ADHD or I just should have never taken the antidepressant and she was did a nice job playing me dumbed down. Similar SSRI experiences? My family is lashing out at me and they don't realize if I was accepted with my ADHD in the first place, this wouldn't have happened...
