> So what would be the effect of a depressed person taking Ritalin? Especially people experiencing fatigue and the blahs as side effects to the traditional antidps?

Actually it works great for CFS and depression, for some people. However, studies have shown children exposed to Ritalin before adolescence can increase depression later in life but decreases the likelyhood of drug abuse as an adult. You can also be sure that any pdoc except the most liberal will make you try every antidepressant on the planet before resorting to Ritalin for treatment of these disorders.
