I have an appointment with a psychiatrist that is probably going to suggest me to try a SRRI meds for seasonal depression and I’m a bit apprehensive to try it because I’m already on adderall for adhd. Does anyone have experience with this combination? I’ve read so far that it’s possible but that the breakdown rate is lower so I’d need to be on smaller dosage.

I will obviously talk with my psychiatrist about my worries but I’d just like to be prepared a bit because my experience with psychiatrists is that they’re really eager to get you on meds but don’t really give a lot of info on them.

I am open to try it because my seasonal depression is debilitating and I feel like I’ve exhausted all other options in trying to ease it without satisfying results (except moving but that’s not possible currently)

I’ve thought about the possibility of just not using the adderall in the winter while I take the ssri because maybe the ssri would alleviate some of the adhd symptoms.

Any insights would be greatly appreciated.
