[|AI|]  Hello and welcome to Chat Doctor. Thanks for your query. From the information that you have provided, your daughter had been suffering from a mild depression following a personal stressor. In my opinion, I find it a bit unusual that she has been prescribed a combination of 4 medication, including 2 antidepressants, for a mild depression.I'm also not sure why she was prescribed Adderley which is a stimulant medication used in the treatment of ADHD. According to most national guidelines for treatment of depression, the person has to be started on one antidepressant and has to be observed for at least 4-6 weeks on an adequate dose, before switching to or adding on another antidepressant. It is possible that the current combination of medication could be precipitating her mood swings. Excessive alcohol intake could also be another reason for this. I would suggest that you take her to a good psychiatrist for a detailed evaluation and further treatment. Best wishes.
