Are you sure its your ADD that's preventing you from getting a job and not, say, the heavy medication cocktail you're on? 20mgs of Zyprexa is a GOOD BIT of antipsychotic for someone who doesn't even have schizophrenia. I'm just saying.
Now, this whole situation with your doc is very unfortunate. My advice would be to quit seeing her and just get your scripts from a family doctor, keeping in mind that a family doctor isn't going to put you on a stimulant or anything too crazy; they're probably only going to give you refills of what you're already taking, and even then they might want to cut it back a bit.
I have to say that at least this doc isn't prescribing everything she can. I mean, she has a point about not prescribing anything that's unnecessary, especially when you're already on a cocktail.
Sorry about your situation.
