I am not nearly so versed in ADD/ADHD as I would like to be. I really am interested in real-life accounts as much as what is described in the medical literature. I witnessed someone who was misdiagnosed as depression fail one drug trial after another. When his doctor reevaluated his diagnosis, he came to the conclusion that there might be a ADD component to his condition. Strattera monotherapy turned his life around.
^That could describe me!^ 7 ADs made me worse, benzos helped. some years ago a top Psydoc bough up attention, brain distration issues (it had never occured to me), and gave me small doses of methylphenidate (ha-a kiddies pill i thought!!) till a level was reached-AHA my head shut up, peace.
