Hi BreezyB,

I've also been given the run around on my diagnosis and I also struggle with addictions. I am also on lexapro. I've been diagnosed with bipolar, depression, social anxiety disorder, ADD, and Schizoaffective disorder.

Do you have a psychiatrist that you are working with. It's important to have a mental health team working with you. It might be a matter of finding the right combination of meds, instead of just one. Lexapro works on Serotonin, but you may also need something that works on dopamine, like a stimulant or Wellbutrin. I feel like the addition of Wellbutrin to my medications has been a life saver.

What ever you do don't give up. There is something out there that will help, it's just a matter of finding in.
