Are you trying each at the lowest dose? THat’s the standard of best practice for clinicians prescribing stimulants. If you are, and the anxiety is still present and unrelenting, there are a couple options:
1) Try a non-stimulant medication
2) Ask your physician about adding an anxiety medication, if the stimulant is working well for you otherwise.
