How To Treat Combination Of OCPD,OCD And ADD?

Ido have a combination of ocpd, ocd and add. I am recently recoving from a three year depression. It is like waking from a coma and realizing how much I did NOT do or care about when I was depressed. Clutter of papers everywhere, etc. I am exhausted from managing my disorders and also the physical ailments that I am also dealing with. What can I do? I have a great family doctor, a psychologist, a psychiatrist, a urologist, a gynecologist and orthopedic foot doctor that I am juggling. I am simply exhausted.

Hello,
Thanks for choosing health care magic for posting your query.
I have gone through your question in detail and I can understand what you are going through.
Well, the fact that you are feeling exhausted and over whelmed itself suggests that you are still having a depressive symptoms which need treatment. You have not mentioned the medication which you are on, otherwise we could have suggested if anything is missing. As of now we would suggest you to keep continuing the treatment. The treatment for OCD and OCPD is more or less the same with SSRIs like fluoxetine or fluovoxamine etc. ADD may require methylphenidate or bupropion etc.
Hope I am able to answer your concerns.
If you have any further query, I would be glad to help you.
