Anxiety from ADHD meds?
Hey all,
Just joined! I was late diagnosed (26 ASD, 28 ADHD) and started ADHD medication at the start of this year! It’s been making me incredibly anxious for the past week.
I haven’t changed anything in my life but feels like worries I could normally bat away are now taking over my mind. When I was a teenager I used to get really severe anxiety and the whole body symptoms are feeling similar.
Just wondering if anyone has any advice or been through this? Medication is definitely helping me but the anxiety is unbearable.
Thanks
