That is unfortunately common. At least that's how I read it. I, myself, have been highly impressed with the compassion, understanding, expertise and approach of Dr Wadsworth. Im 53 and have been on a lifelong quest to find a solution to my chronic anxiety. Since my early 20s I've been aware that my anxiety was active whether or not there was really anything to be anxious about. I described it as "ambient." I'm in the generation right before they started recognizing and diagnosing ADHD in kids - and even then it was the typical symptoms of little hyperactive / disruptive boys that were the trigger to evaluate them for ADHD. It presents so differently in girls. And later, if it's not treated, it presents even more differently in adult women who have adapted through the decades to use coping mechanisms to manage their symptoms without understanding why they were happening. I am fortunate to have recently witnessed the diagnosis and successful treatment outcome of a young woman in my family! Without being part of that process I don't think I would have EVER recognized the suspected symptoms in myself. And it wasn't actually me who started the real inquiry - it was the loving people who know me well who pointed out behaviors, tendencies and habits that all pointed to underlying ADHD. Contrary to my understanding, ADHD doesn't mean you can't pay attention. It often means the opposite - you pay too much attention to too many things at once! And the hyperactive component doesn't always manifest in stereotypical behaviors on the outside. I am a woman who can focus like a laser beam and aside from bouncing my knee when I have to sit still, not much about me screams 'hyperactive.' BUT inside my mind, my laser beam focus is like Swiss cheese - bombarded by distractions which exhaust me to manage. I learned that it was the inability to turn my laser beam off - or to allow it to focus on just one thing at a time - that was the problem. My chronic list making and future tripping belied my constant overwhelm because all of my thoughts hit me at once. Important, unimportant, happy, worried, hopeful, future, past, to-dos, relationships, house, yard, pets, work, play... all in one big jumble! I had managed to develop a system to prioritize and tackle things in some logical order. And I would engage one of the common superpowers of ADHD (hyper-focus) to address each task or project, but it was always an exhausting process because I was fending off overwhelm and burning so much energy in an effort to keep intrusive thoughts at bay. I can only see this now because I've been on Adderall, prescribed by Dr Wadsworth after a thorough and careful evaluation, for about a week. Now I know how my mind CAN work and now i realize I should have been on this med since I was a child. I still am aware of my large to do list and overall areas of concern and responsibility in my life, but it's no longer overwhelming because my thoughts (and the feelings that go with them) proceed in a fairly logical and moderately paced order. My anxiety is down about 80-90% compared to just a couple of weeks ago. I never dreamed that would be possible. Another benefit is that all my decades of practice developing coping skills are finally paying off! Now if I do "The Work" or apply mindfulness techniques to a disturbance, it actually makes a difference! It used to be that the anxious pit in my stomach barely reduced even when I could unequivocally see that there was nothing real to be anxious about. I hope others in my situation find their way to Dr W so they can be properly evaluated, too. I appreciate that he treats me like a grownup regarding adjusting my dose according to my own pace, and discussing options without dismiss my input. I also struggle with sleep and he's been very open to helping me explore med combos that will work. Overall I've been very grateful to have found him and I would not hesitate to recommend him for care. In fact I've already shared his info with a couple of people in my life who are my age and whom I suspect may have also slipped through the diagnosis cracks when they were kids. I hope all of us can finally circle back to receive the diagnosis and treatment we always needed and deserved. Thank you for reading this, and please pass these thoughts on to someone you know who may be suffering needlessly - without all the puzzle pieces they need to solve it! I wouldn't have found this life-changing solution if people who loved me hadn't gently nudged me to explore. It's too hard to see yourself from the inside - especially after a lifetime adapting to what you think is normal.

I am a female patient with an extensive history of abuse, and I only recently became fully aware of…read morethe extent of the trauma I endured due to dissociation. I initially sought treatment from Dr. David Shaw in my 20's for what I believed to be depression. After 10 years of prescribing me drugs of little help (without ever asking if I had a history of trauma), Dr. Shaw began injecting me with Ketamine (a dissociative anesthetic) starting with 80mg and then quickly moving to 120mg per injection of Ketamine weekly. I weigh 120 lbs and every injection caused complete loss of consciousness and amnesia for the duration of the session afterwards. After asking him to reduce the dosage, he eventually injected me with 100mg of Ketamine on one routine visit and then proceeded to allow me to leave his office (unconscious) 18 minutes after injecting me. I have ZERO recollection of this. I "came to" IN JAIL, after the drug he injected had worn off, and after being charged with a DUI - all due to him injecting me with Ketamine and neglecting to supervise my recovery. He does not supervise patients that are under the effects of this dissociative drug and has no one in the office to do so. This is extremely dangerous, and proved to be so in my case. After this incident, I researched Ketamine administration and most clinical standards dictate that a patient is not allowed to drive for the entire DAY of Ketamine administration. The patient should be monitored for the duration of the drug administration and both be driven to and back home by a responsible adult. Dr. Shaw allowed patients themselves to drive both to and home from his office at their SEVERELY IMPAIRED and UNCONSCIOUS discretion after injecting them with Ketamine, dismissing them, and moving on to the next patient. I am not sure how I made it home all of the other times he dismissed me and let me wait alone while I decided (again, impaired) when I could drive the 45 minutes home. I have dramatically regressed since this incident - my PTSD and anxiety are unmanageable. The trauma of being arrested and put through the court system for over two years while I waited for the blood test to come back, the stigma and shame caused by his unsupervised Ketamine administration and resulting arrest, night in jail, and prolonged court procedures have been utterly debilitating, detrimental and have severely harmed my quality of life. The harm caused by Dr. Shaw's negligence still has a devastating impact. Prior to this event, I was transitioning careers, had just completed a rigorous continued education course and earned a certification, was interviewing, and fully capable of functioning at a high level. Since that day, I have been unable to function normally and have undergone intensive therapy to address the trauma caused by this incident. I am now thankfully in treatment with two very compassionate and safe female therapists and beginning to work on my ability to trust healthcare providers. Another incident of note: I also "came to" during one of his ketamine injection sessions (prior to the incident I described above - I have not seen him since) on his couch with a large bleeding gash on my forehead, and upon touching my head and seeing blood, I asked Dr. Shaw what happened. He then proceeded to tell me I "fell over" during the session and "hit my head on his rock crystal," and grabbed a paper towel and sprayed it with an alcohol based antiseptic and started blotting at my head without my consent. Looking back, this was a huge red flag. I had a large laceration and egg sized bump on my head and have no recollection of how it got there, other than him telling me I fell on his rock crystal. And then sprayed my head (yes, he also sprayed my head) with antiseptic, blotted it with a paper towel, and let me go. My hair was covered with blood near the gash and I had a very painful shower and a painful two weeks healing after that. AVOID THIS DOCTOR. I do not want any other vulnerable person to be harmed by his negligence.
