I'm 65 and found I had ADHD only 2 years ago. I've done extensive reading on the subject. I have to respectfully disagree with the order of your treatment. I was misdiagnosed by approx 6 therapists over the years with depression and given antidepressants - they did not work. Then, approx 2 years ago - my boss diagnosed me - I didnt believe her until I went home and looked up ADHD on my computer and found I had almost all of the symptoms. The medication (Vyvanse) has helped me a great deal. It has been found that taking the ADHD med first would help you a lot more - than other meds to regulate you - It's the ADHD med that you need to help you focus and concentrate, etc - then you may not need the others.
