I primarily started therapy for OCD. It wasn't getting better, and then I was put on ADHD medication and things rapidly started to improve. The thing about OCD is that it feeds off of your vulnerabilites- since i couldn't focus, it would try and make me obssess about things to the point where i literally had to focus on one certain thing for hours. and then of course, i coudlnt' focus so i couldn't satisfy the ocd and it just went around and around. Anyway, my point is yes- i think the adhd had been getting in the way of dealing with my other mental problems.
