Is it possible to have anxiety and ADD. I know I have both including depression, but I don't know how to determine which one is worse. I always have anxious feelings, especially since my husband and I have been going through problems. I cant focus I have been self medicating myself by taking stacker 2's, drinking energy drinks,whatever to keep my head together to keep me focused!

Thanks,
It took me so long to get a doctor to even diagnosis me with anxiety that I get nervous to even ask for medicine scared that they will not believe me again. I’m sure I have to go back, because the meds that I have now do not work. Is it possible to take anxiety and ADD meds? I was taking Zoloft, which is I believe an anti depressant and anxiety but I stopped because I didn’t want to need them. I’m laughing as I read this because it sounds as though that’s my prob with following through because Im afraid of what the doctor will think of me (ADD and anxiety). (I think I need to relax because I just had a thought that whoever is reading this wont believe me) |

um stacker 2's are just gonna make it worse. I took yellow jackets once and my heart rate went through the roof, and continued the whole next day, and yeah it was scary. I don't suggest that you do that to medicate yourself unless that rush makes you feel good.... forget the unless, those things are rediculous.

A lot of people have multiple mental health issues so it isn't surprising to get multiple dx. It sounds like you have really been downing huge amounts of caffeine and sugar and too much of that stuff can really trigger anxiety for a lot of folks.
