my son started taking ritalin when he was in 6th grade. When he was in 9th grade he was doing so well in school that he was taken off the ritalin. After around 3 months, he became very depressed and was put on affectine, an anti depressant. He felt less depressed, but his schoolwork had slipped terribly, and so he was put back on ritalin. He is now doing very again in school and is not depressed (he is still on affectine). I was wondering if anyone else had had the same thing (i.e., after taking ritalin becoming depressed)
