Hi AOB,
I don't know all the specifics of my friend's case, but I do indeed think they dx'd her with ADD--(what a surprise!). At this point she does *not* consider herself to have ADD; she has a serious low thyroid cdx. however and is helped greatly by traditional thyroid meds.
Other than that I think she had some underlying depression (not bi-polar) that she is successfully treating with Celexa.
My p.doc has heard similar things about the Amen clinic as MB alludes to, although that was the worst I've heard yet. I think he just said they end up diagnosing everyone with ADD and prescribing for that condition.
So sorry the news isn't encouraging, but on the other hand maybe you can spare yourself some grief and a lot of money.
Good luck to you.
