You'll have to use google.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Diagnosis is crucial. I was incorrectly diagnosed with ADHD at 46yo in 2003. For 6 years I tried 12 medication all didnt work. I then got a 2nd opinion and was diagnosed with bipolar, depression, dysthymia and a little anxiety residual after many years of relaxation etc. The mania in bipolar can mirror mania etc in ADHD, hence the importance of correct assessment.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Good luck.&nbsp;</P><P>TonyWK</P> Thu, 02 Mar 2023 07:53:49 GMT https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/anxiety/adhd-diagnosis/m-p/560170#M48609 white knight 2023-03-02T07:53:49Z
