I tend to agree that adult "onset" ADD is rare. Thats not to say that aduld ADD doesn't exist.
I think if an adult (with no problems as a child) were to develop ADD like symptoms it would be due to organic brain disease or possible anxiety / depression.>Also He feels that Ad's SSRI's etc do work
Of course he does, he's a psychiatrist. I disagree.
>and multi-pharmacy isn't called for other than >with lets say Bipolar, Or Schizohrenia.
I disagree. If SSRIs worked maybe one med would be fine.
