Then three months later, by chance, another doc dx's me with ADHD. Now it all makes sense!!!!!!!!!!!! I whole life wasted!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have tried Vyvanse, Paxil, Wellbutrin, Prestiq, all to no avail.
Someone tell me that it will be okay. That it is not hopeless for me. Depression makes it almost impossible to get out of bed each day. I only manage it because I need to work in order to have a bed to not want to get out of!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Arrrrrrgggggghhhhhhhh!

Drew,
I feel your pain bro I am 43 and have just now been diagnosed with ADHD, I have been on cymbalta and klonipin for over 3 years which started with my last divorce which was my second. Before cymbalta they tried every anti-depressant on the market, which is about the time I started having panic attacks!! Go figure. They now have put me on concerta for the adhd which seems to have helped but I still have terrible bouts of depression and for the first time in my life have had thoughts of just ending it. The only thing that has kept me from following through is my fear of going to hell!!! lol I am the son of a preacher and have tried to turn to god and asked for help but yet here I am!!!! I will say I have been through some low times in my life and have made it through and it does get better. In the past I have numbed myself with drugs and have given that up so this time around I have to learn to deal with life on my own. I know I sound like a cliche and hate when people tell me it will get better mostly people that have not been through **** but I have and it will. Keep fighting!!! All I know is that I have been more messed up since I have been on RX drugs then ever before and am determined to get off them some how!!!
