Comorbidity of Bipolar Disorder & ADHD #BipolarDisorder #ADHD #MentalHealth
I have been referred for an ADHD assessment via my GP on the advice of Inspire, the substance abuse treatment centre, which has helped me to focus on kicking my alcohol and cocaine addictions. They advised me that as I used the cocaine to level me out and make me feel like I was in a stable place, the medication used for ADHD, Amphetamines, are stimulants, and this may be a link.
What’s anyone’s advice or recommendations or thoughts on this matter? Can you become dependent on these meds?
