The meds I've got are focused on depression. I've known I was depressed longer than I've know I had adhd, and now I understand that's probably why I was depressed.
My Dr told me that the way they usually go at these things is start with depressive or anxious symptoms first to see if it is adhd caused or not. Pretty sure it is at this point but still. I got on a combo that, Holy shit this is the longest I've been not depressed for as long as I can remember! It's fucking insane! Like, is this how other people have felt the whole time?!
I am trying to just get out there, but shit is difficult man...
