So now to add to my list of Bipolar II, PTSD, and BPD, I am finding out that I possibly have ADHD as well. My T tested me for it last week, since she knows that my Pdoc likes to have the information before starting meds for ADHD.

My therapist is convinced that I have it, and that it is a source of a lot of my self esteem issues starting in early childhood. Since it was explained to me, I can see that it is probably true. I have always blamed my scattered way of being on Bipolar, but now that I have been stable for close to a year I can see that it is not resolving. I'm still disorganized, unfocused and spacey pretty much all the time.

Honestly, sometimes it is sheer luck if I catch 3 words out of a conversation.
And if you start talking to me while I'm doing something else, forget it.

So I am pretty sure I will be started on a trial of ADHD meds next week . I currently take 300 mgs of Lamictal, 187.5 of Effexor and .25 Risperdal daily.

Any advice from people who take similar meds and ADHD medication? I'm a little worried about using a stimulant because I am finally pretty balanced in my day to day life.
