Re: Doctor Reluctant to Treat the Comorbidities

Thanks for the response, jeneticallymodified. I recently started Adderall XR and it is going well so far. Might have to up the dose a bit, but sideeffects are minimal, i.e. just a slight lightheadedness. Focus is better, but not where I want it to be yet. I spoke to my psychiatrist about going the SSRI route over the stimulant route, but she wanted to try stimulants first.

The anxiety issues are the worst for me. For example, I bought a shirt and tie yesterday and obsessed over whether I overspent, got decent quality, bought the right thing for hours afterwards, even after I accepted the purchase in my head as required. Not sure how they will treat that, but have to wait and see.
