I know in 2004 that it is illegal for Docs to prescribe MOST of the time,(for depression alone) althought you (and Doc) could always *claim* it is being used for ADD. I know Buzz Aldren used Rit for sever depression after his Moon landing mission, and CIA man William F Buckly has used Rit for over 30 years for mental brain fuel!, and of course theres the late good ole boy Johnny Cash and his well known love for Dex.

Rvansom,
Its a good thing then that a top Psydoc has written on certain pieces of paper that I struggle with Depression, and (heres the lawfull use for a Stim ) *ADHD*- but don't we all to some degree?

Come on, Psychiatry is really just a, pseudo-science-game, trying to be a real branch of "Medicine"
