I have severe anxiety and depression but I’ve been without my A.D.H.D meds for so long that they prescribed be Zoloft (of course) it didn’t work for me it just made me feel more sad because it would strip me of most of my emotions and I couldn’t even cry so I would sit in silence sad for a lot of people it works but don’t be surprised if it doesn’t and if it makes any symptoms you feel worse stop it slowly or as soon as you can and tell your doctor
