You most certainly can have ADD or ADDHD, I don't think there is any debate in the psychiatric world about this. Sounds like you need a new doc. I certainly would if I was told that by the guy who I'm relying on to make me well.

Certainly a correct diagnosis would seem to be beneficial. But at the same time, it seems most of the conditions people come on this message board for seem to be treated with the same types of meds (i.e. SSRI's, Benzo's, Mood Stabilizers, etc.) I think it all boils down to finding a drug that works well on your symptoms. Certainly a diagnosis such as Bipolar or Schizophrenia would be highly beneficial in a treatment approach. But when it comes to anxiety, depression, nervous disorders, they all seem to all be so closely related that the docs treat with meds as mentioned above or use meds to treat one disorder off label to treat your disorder.

Thats how it works and it's all trial and error. I think many of us believe the meds make us worse. Some have or should I say many have for me, and only the benzos have helped in my case.

Good luck to ya,

Gary
