[quote=Anonymous]Severe anxiety can present as ADHD as it affects executive function and working memory. Think about it- if you were asked to take a test and concentrate on something but there was a giant monster in the room would you be able to focus on anything but the monster? My advice is to focus on the anxiety, either with therapy or or your own, and see if things improve. Talk therapy doesn't work for ADHD. Check out Eli Lebowitz's parent book, that is a good place to start.[/quote]
