I've Read About Adderall Helping With Depression. How Do I Go About Getting My Dr To Prescribe It For Me. I've Been Suffering Mdd Since 2007
A MyDepressionTeam Member asked a question 💭

Before my dad and mom's death I suffered from depression but meds helped, now I just want it all to end. I haven't been happy or been able to find joy in anything. I've lost all motivation for life. Is Adderall the answer? How do I get my Dr to prescribe it to me? I was told that I couldn't take my Xanax if I took Adderall. Is this true. Please help me to know the correct way to go about this. Also I just moved to another city and am waiting to see my new provider.

I'm worried that I am treatment resistant. I am on a few medications for severe depression and severe anxiety but I still depressed/anxious. Has anyone else had this problem? I am on Welbutrin XL, Zoloft, Abilify, Elavil and Vistaril

I am not a substance abuser. I merely asked bc those are meds that I haven’t ever taken and I’ve taken a lot of different meds. Nothing has helped. Idk what’s wrong with me?
