i take both vyvanse and zoloft for adhd + anxiety and it’s helped me for the past 6 years. i know some people who were prescribed these and it didn’t help, but trying meds is always worth an ask of your psychiatrist :)

The only medication I ever tried was concerta. I take a combo of 27mg and 18mg (for a total of 45mg). When I took it I didn’t have any negative side effects so we just messed with the dosage until we found the amount that worked best for me. I’ve been on concerta for over 6 years and it works well for me. But it all depends on how you specifically respond to the medication

I take adderal and Wellbutrin. I have adhd, depression, and anxiety. The adderal does an amazing job of calming the adhd and the Wellbutrin helps to stabilize my mood. Somehow the combination of the two also helps my anxiety, most of the time. I wouldn’t recommend this combination if you feel more anxiety when you get jittery as both are considered stimulants. I’ve been on adderal for over 10 years, and my doctor added Wellbutrin about 4 years ago, so I have some time with understanding how these medications work with my body. Regardless, definitely talk to your doctor/therapist about options. Some antidepressants can help with anxiety when paired with other medications. Best of luck to you.

I take adderall and Zoloft! it has been great for me so far :) Zoloft changed my life. the adderall makes me a little jittery, but I’ve felt much better since being on the combo
