Technically, though, Ritalin (or Focalin...or whatever...) is still first line for some attention disorders and some forms of depression.I receive more of an energizing effect from Focalin than I do from Ritalin (both forms of methylphenidate) or any of the amphetamines. None of these drugs produces a true antidepressant effect for me, but they do help give me the mental energy to better combat my illness, especially if used intermittently.
