Hello so i have bipolar 1 with schitzo affected disorder and im 40 yrs old k and my mom just told me i was diagnosed with adhd when i was 4 yrs old and i was on medication for about a year till she took me off k now im having difficulty focusing and paying attention so i tried to talk to my doctor about it and she said is because i have bipolar 1 and she gave a new antispycodic called varylar and to tell u the truth im afraid to take it because it said one if the side affects is i can have sucial thoughts and i dont want to think the way ever again. So my question to u do u guys think i might still have adhd or im bipolar 1 like the doctor said cause i read that u cant take any adhd medication with an antipsychotic medication

Vraylar is a really great medication! I took it and it helped a lot within the first week. I was really surprised. Unfortunately, being diagnosed with bipolar means you have tendencies to become manic. There are a lot of ADHD medication that use stimulants in them. Stimulants and Bipolar absolutely do NOT mix! It will cause mania. Now there are some ADHD medications that are nonstimulants. I would ask about those.
I WOULD HONESTLY GET A SECOND OPINION & EVEN A THIRD OPINION AND SO ON UNTIL YOU ARE HAPPY π AND FEEL COMPLETE WITH YOUR FINAL DIAGNOSIS AND OR THE MEDICATION π COMBO THATS PRESCRIBED TO YOU. ALWAYS BE CAREFUL BECAUSE MOST OF ANY MEDICATIONS YOU TAKE HAVE A 1/2 OR SLIGHT CHANCE OF BEING SUICIDAL. ITS DEFINITELY A PROCESS TOO FINDING THAT RIGHT MEDICINE THAT FITS YOU SOME ARE LONG THAN OTHERS. DEPENDING UPON HOW FAST π¨ π€ YOUR BODY AJUSTS TO YOU AND YOUR BODY π π π βοΈ Good π Luck π βοΈ.
