i am positive i am ADD ... but it seems as tho I have major depressive times also ... It seems like I have like 3 cycles going ?? a short cycle that's not too bad every other month or so ... then every 6 months or so i end up in bed for a month ... then a really big one (ruin my life episodes) every 8-10 yrs ??? I am thinking this is a few different disorders ... i would just like to hear if anyone has ever seen anything like this ?? i deal with chronic pain issues from degenerated disc disease and i am partially disabled from car accident injuries also ... but i need to get my head better NOW, I can't stand being like this anymore

I have always wondered the same thing. My psychiatrist is watching me for a mood disorder but so far I haven't been diagnosed as I don't meet the full criteria. I have been diagnosed with ADHD and major depressive disorder. I've always wondered if I was diagnosed ADHD because I was showing manic symptoms and diagnosed major depressive disorder because I was showing the depressive symptoms of bipolar disorder. I would love to hear others' thoughts about this topic.
