ADHD medication and GAD combo has felt awful.
I wanted to add the medication flair too but I need more input on what others have had experience with and how they've managed it.
To start, basically I've been on both Vyvanse and Ritalin but am currently still using Ritalin. I want to take an anxiety focused medication as my day to day anxiety has definitely been increased since taking stimulants.
I've tried these drugs below but all have been super unpleasant long term.
- Mirtazapine (sleeping in causing me to not wake up in the mornings for work or really anything at all)
- Venlafaxine (sexual dysfunctions and horrible withdrawl)
- Desvenlafaxine (same as above but worse withdrawals)
At this point im unsure what other medications to try. If there's anyone here that has had a positive experience with an anxiety medication that doesn't have awful withdrawl symptoms or common sexual dysfunction as I seem to be sensitive to those effects.
I'm a bit lost and am struggling to find some way to make it work
