    For ADHD I am taking Adderall, and for anxiety I am taking Klonopin (Clonazepam) but I am being tapered off of Clonazepam. Clonazepam really worked for easing my anxiety and giving me relief from panic attacks. Although I want to take something different for my anxiety and stop the Clonazepam because I have become dependent on it.

      yeah my anxiety is chronically high which isn’t what benzos are indicated for. Maybe Buspar?

        I've tried buspar, but that did nothing for me. My anxiety got extremely bad 10 years ago, and I would constantly get panic attacks and benzos were the only thing that actually worked for me. I still have bad anxiety, but there's been time's where I've run out of Clonazepam and since it's a controlled substance, not many doctors will prescribe it and I've had to go to the ER a couple times to get an emergency refill. I've taken Ativan before, and the way it was explained to me is that Ativan is for when you're having a panic attack, but Clonazepam helps prevent the panic attacks.

    I take Effexor for the anxiety and depression. Nothing for the ADHD, I tried a few things several years ago and didn't agree with anything.

    Also, there's a non stimulant medicine called clonodine that's also used to treat ADHD and to help control impulsivity. I tried it before due to impulsive behavior, and I almost fell asleep while driving because it's so sedating. So I will never take that medicine again.

    I take zoloft and adderall. Honestly it's the best combination I've had and I've had alot of them. Vyvanse did not work for me.

      Oh and to add. Give the zoloft time. Start small and just keep moving forward. I gave up all stimulants to ease the anxiety more.
