Anxiety in ADHD: It is a common sign found in persons with adhd. The intrinsic mechanism is unclear but it may be mediated by the dysregulation of the noradrenergic system which underlies adhd. Since there is an imbalance of most brain neurotransmitters, depression and mood disorders are likely to accompany adhd if untreated. Medications, behavioral modification and meditation improve all symptoms in adhd.
