I have to agree very hard with this. My depression and anxiety were in a very large part caused by the unmanaged symptoms of ADHD.

When the ADHD got diagnosed and addressed the depression and anxiety mostly disappeared.

Thanks for the encouragement. It’s been a year and my anxiety is a lot better now. I’ll see if I can’t get another referral and be seen again, maybe by a different psych.
