> Frustratedmama - so what did the consultant advise for you???
The consultant basically just gave me a diagnosis of ADHD and Mood D/O NOS (not bipolar). She recommended trying Cymbalta, Seroquel, or Prazosin... Unfortunatly, I am fairly certain Seroquel is out due to the fact that I can Not tolerate Zyprexa, Risperdal, Geodon, or Abilify (even in very low doses) without feeling like I am DRUGGED- intense paranoia set in within hours/days of taking these meds!
I am willing to try Cymbalta but was looking at Pristiq as I am afraid of sedation (I am a single parent who HAS to work or will lose my home)
I am open to Prazosin but wanted something to work on depression first as I am desparate and suicidal.....
