As for differences between bipolar and adult ADD - google has information, personally I believe adult ADD to be up their with childhood *** as about most over diagnosed thing around and do not remotely believe its as prevalent as people say - I have met plenty of adults who claim to be ADD and not one of them truly fits the symptoms and the behaviours but hey they get ritalin and it works so they must be ADD right? * Ritalin works on non ADD and ADD people in most cases...
Unless you have been diagnosed with ADD/ADHD as a child, you can’t have it as an adult.
FACT: Many adults struggle all their lives with unrecognized ADD/ADHD impairments. They haven’t received help because they assumed that their chronic difficulties, like depression or anxiety, were caused by other impairments that did not respond to usual treatment."

I was recently diagnosed with adult add. My doctoe prescribed adderall 20mg a day. It helps a lot with focus & motivation. But when I am at work or in social settings I feel paranoid & xtreme anxiety. My doc said he is upping my prozac that would help with social anxiety. But it will take a month to feel a benefit from that & the adderall will probably just override it. I did not take the adderall todday b4 work. I don't know what to do. Just take adderall on my days off?
Have you ever had your thyroid checked? Hypothyroidism (too slow) can cause low energy as well and is directly linked to clinical depression. It can cause many female issues as well that could look like the premenapause that your doctor's are checking you for.
You are clearly depressed and i don't know about ADD. Usually to be diagnosed with ADD as an adult you would tell tales of all kinds of difficulty as a child.
ve been doing research. It started with looking up signs for depression and than anxiety and than ADD. All the signs point to that. I'm doing this alone with the help of no one and have no idea what steps need to be taken. I talked to a doctor about it and it seemed like she didn't take me too serious but recommend a Psychiatrist either way. I called but they didn't take my insurance. Which doctor do I make an appointment with for this?
