I was diagnosed at 6 with ADHD , anxiety, depression, back in that day mental health issues was not excepted so hid my treatment and eventually stopped,I would tell myself I am just like everyone else. Man I was big time wrong.I failed out school started taking white crosses, pot, benzos I never kept job longer than couple months , I had hard time relating to people . In 20s I fell broke my back. And this is when it started Hydrocodone (Vicodin), it helped more than back pain , my depression, anxiety, problems being around people,I really thought back then I could just take this for rest of life all would be great. Well after a year or so it took more and more, and I never got that perfect feeling I got when started, basically I had to take certain amount daily to make through day,I was taking 20-25 daily, doctor shopping, started stealing, cheating, lying, even to family. A bunch failed attempts rehab ,and some trips to jail.i finally found Suboxone been on awhile, but currently only on 6mg.Then I found psychiatrist, he is great he went through records from childhood, and agreed to help if I followed his rules signed contract. I told him anything. So he told me basically I been self medicating since stopped treatment at 8 years old, he said he wanted my mother in there as well he started me on Vyvanse, Zoloft, Klonopin. He asked my mother if she would take charge of my meds, she signed contract too. So I been clean off hydrocodone 7 years and in treatment for adult ADHD, depression, anxiety 6 years. The Vyvanse stopped working all day so currently I am on Adderall 3×day 20mg150mg Zoloft was taking 1mg Klonopin 3× day but have gone down 1mg at bed if needed, I also am in therapy and go too group, I am 40 now and my life is so much better I'm still on low dose 6mg Suboxone but from what I hear it is now used off label for resistant depression. I wrote this cause I want too help people out. Here too see it can happen, you can get it right. God bless
