I am on Adderall XR right now. I am still on my other psych meds though. The Adderall was added to help get me going so that I don't stay in bed all day with the covers over my head. It helps a lot (plus now I have job). However, I feel like it is masking my depression. Like I can feel the depression underneath the Adderall (if that makes sense).
Some doctors will put a patient on a stimulant whilst waiting for an AD to kick in.
I also know of several people on this board who take Ritalin for their depression and nothing else.
I am really happy that you are doing so well!

Being happy doesn´t mean the pain is gone. you just bury it deeper.
