I have discovered recently to have ADHD. I have been treated with Anafranil 75mg for years (for OCD which I did't have). my personal experience is that Anafranil helped a lot with focus and impulsiviness (if you can tolerate the side-effects). On the other side when I'm on Anafranil I usually start to experience OCD symptoms which normally I don't have. I found that even small doses (like 25mg) can help,I suppose for its sedative (side)effects (rather than for the antidepressant ones) and the effect is almost immediate, you don't have to wait for weeks. hope this can help.
