I have recently been diagnosed with ADHD. I tried adderral and didn't have much luck, but I have switched to ritalin now and have been taking it for 6 weeks. I was wondering if anyone else experienced heightened depressed mood? Did it affect your exercise/motivation? It definately has a lot of positives for me. I am currently going through an extremely high stress situation and I'm not sure if it's that or if the Ritalin is heightening my anxiety and making me feel really depressed continually
