If its any help, I was diagnosed with Anxiety but one clinic doctor asks me questions on a paper and told me I to must have ADHD... and wanted to put me a ridalin. Obviously I was hesitant because I did not believe I had ADHD and knew that if I did It would not cause me to have Panic/Anxiety Attacks... So it does all depend on your symtoms and how you are feeling. I personally knew I had Anxiety by putting all my strange symtoms together, you know yourself best. So do your reseach on Anxiety and you will know, trust me.

The answer is obvious, do see another Dr. I really don't see how he could give you a diagnosis with 5 questions and one visit.
Are you saying that you have started the ADHD meds and they are helping? I'm a little confused about that. Sorry.
What are your symptoms?  Remar
