I was diagnosed w/ADHD as an adult at the same time I was dxed w/bipolar. I take meds for bipolar & Concerta. Been on both kinds of medications for about 12 yrs. Cannot imagine doing without the Concerta. It has helped me so much. Same w/bipolar meds.
Now in the process of getting off some meds for bipolar due to making a lot of progress through therapy & DBT.
