Can ADHD and Anxiety Be Treated Together?
It often feels like your brain has two speeds. One part wants to move a million miles an hour, while the other part is frozen in fear. You are not lazy or broken for feeling this way. This is a common battle for many brilliant people.
What is it?
Treating ADHD and anxiety at the same time is called a combined approach. It means addressing the focus issues and the fear signals at once. These two conditions often live together and can actually make each other feel worse.
Signs & Symptoms
Why does this happen?
Your prefrontal cortex handles focus. In ADHD, this area struggles to regulate signals. Your amygdala is the brain's alarm system. When your focus slips, the amygdala panics. It sends out stress chemicals like cortisol, which creates a loop of fear and distraction.
