I'm 23yr male. recently diagnosed add innatentive type with anxiety. I'm well educated on add and don't have a doubt that I have always suffered from this. My more specific problems are extreme boredem, lack of motivation, concentration problems, lack of interest, lack of enjoyment, and I also have anxiety with mild panic which seems to come and go, maybe once or twice a week. What treatment options are best for this? I have been on 2 ssri (celexa, lexapro, 20mg) for the anxiety, both made me completely numb feeling, periods of de-realization, didn't seem to do a thing for my anxiety (yes I was on them for almost two months each)Regardless of my anxiety, my Dr. wanted to try and treat the add and see how the response was. I got a script for adderall IR 10mg 2x daily, which has helped me eliminate caffiene altogether, and I'm working on kicking my nicotine habit. Overall it makes my mood much better and I can feel a lot more normal. It doesn't seem to directly cause my anxiety since I'm feeling better on it, but if I start feeling anxiety while on the adderall it can seem a lot worse than it is. I just feel like I'm stuck and theres nothing that can help. Adderall makes me feel better but I just don't trust it and was wondering how safe really is it compared to ssri's?? I'm worried I'm going to have a terrible panic attack while on it and go psychotic or something. On the other hand, it makes my energy level normal and I feel better and am actually enthaused about life while on it, and not in a euphoric way at all. On the other hand the periods of anxiety can be hell. Has anyone else had a similar experience or has add with anxiety? And if so, what treatment options did you try and how did they work?
