Antidepressant use declines in adults after ADHD diagnosis, large-scale study indicates

The findings, published in Acta Psychiatrica Scandinavica, suggest that properly identifying and addressing ADHD may lessen the need for other psychiatric medications—particularly in adults who had previously been treated for symptoms like depression or anxiety.
