In reply to Ritalin not working? Depression, posted by ChicagoKat on July 27, 2012, at 15:06:50

Hi Kat,

I have MDD w/ anxiety (or bipolar--it's not clear cut) and my depressive episodes are pretty severe. I've tried stimulants in the past (though not Ritalin specifically) and they weren't effective for me in the long term, either.

I too have tried many different meds over the years (as many here have) and right now I'm currently taking a regimen that's (seemingly) working (though I'm trying not to get too excited as things always poop out on me). Have you exhausted all the AD classes (SRIs, NRIs, TCAs & MAOIs)? Or combos of these? It seems many here have done well using combos as well as using off label meds that work well on depression.

Feel better!
