I Was Diagnosed With Adhd And Take 15 Mg Adderall

I was diagnosed with adhd and take 15 mg Adderall once a day and have been taking it for 8 years. It has helped me stay focused. Lately I was diagnosed wit hashimotos and my anxiety has gone through the roof. Without Adderall I make mistakes at work and cant stay focused no matter what I do. I was on other drugs prior to Adderall for adhd, but Adderall was the one that worked and it works great. My anxiety has been triggered by hashimotos, as well as depression. I take 1.5 mgs Xanax daily, sometimes only 1 mg Xanax. I feel wonderfull on the combination. My thryroide med Levothyroxine according to blood work and other tests is the dosage I should be on. I need a psychiatrist who understands this is what helps me. Without meds, I isolate and don't do anything with friends and family.
