I came across an interesting case, admittedly the first of a kind for me where a lady I saw in clinic with long history of what appears to be generalized anxiety disorder and social phobia has been doing extensive reading and convinced herself that she has ADHD based on symptoms.
She started using a low dose Adderall from an unknown source with self report improvement of symptoms when confronted by social stressors - ie: improvement in conversational skills most noticeably.
Any theories for these neurobiological interactions? I recognize this has been short, I am wanting to get a hand up over these these symptoms as anxiety seems to be popping up more and provide some sound treatment rationale. I've also done a pubmed search with limited responses back (Did I not hit the correct key words?)
Thanks.
