I think there's plenty of reason to be wary about. My experience with psychiatrists is that there's not a good way to know beforehand if meds are going to work well or give nasty side effects, you just have to try and see.

That being said, ever since I'm on my current adhd medication and antidepressants i am able to think about the future, and to build my own happiness, rather than trying to put out so many fires I couldn't help to be terrified and paralyzed by everyday life.
