Switching doctors is always an option. “Family Doctors” are the worst place to go for ADHD, anxiety, depression, etc. Even “basic” psychiatry doctors have different approaches and different levels of education in very specific areas. Family doctors are internists… they didn’t study psychiatry, so they just match symptoms to drugs. So get some recommendations or do a little research to find a true expert in the field.
Consider “Cognitive Behavioral Therapy”. Find an expert with that. While drugs may take a while to work, having behavior modifications to employ (and have someone who can support you there) can help when you feel derailed.
