Some of the same drugs that work against OCD can also be of help in ADHD, I think. I have no doubt that ADHD is over-dx'd, but it is a real syndrome and needs to be taken seriously when it is present, but I can understand why some pdocs are skeptical. I've just begun treating my ADHD with Ritalin, so I'm no authority, but it seems to me that much of my depression was caused by untreated ADHD over the course of a lifetime.
