Much has been written about undiagnosed ADHD in adults. All too often, patients have suffered for decades and may have been treated for comorbid conditions first, including depression, anxiety, bipolar, and other mood disorders.
The 2017 National Comorbidity Survey reported that adults with ADHD are three times more likely to develop major depressive disorder (MDD), six times more likely to develop dysthymia, and more than four times more likely to have any mood disorder.
For treatment-resistant patients, when multiple drugs have failed, an ADHD diagnosis can be critical. Treating ADHD is straightforward using stimulants like Adderall or Ritalin, and the patient often experiences life-changing relief almost immediately.
Don't delay in treating ADHD while continuing any interventional treatment for disabling mood disorders. Treat ADHD and comorbid symptoms simultaneously to restore the body's intended natural state.
