If you dont like Ritalin or Dexedrine (none of which I tried to be honest), you might wanna check out Nootropil (piracetam), taken together with Choline, and you could add some Omega-3 Fatty Acids, Glutamine and Chromium. These are all fairly proven things to take. The Nootropil and Choline is energising and helps with concentration, do some research on the web about dosages etc. You might find that soemtimes it energises too much, in which case you might wanna try Kava Kava to chill you out.
As for depression, try going the Tryptophan route (or 5-HTP) initally with the Piracetam, I have previously had very good results. ADDers often get depressed about the lack of energy and ability, and once ability is back up the depression will lift.
I hope this helps in some way. Keep trying. Also, I bought a BRILLIANT book called "ADHD in Adulthood" by John Hopkins University Press... it's a bit pricey (41 Pounds in the UK), but well worth it.
cheers,
