Bacl from my Doc today.I spoke to her about my condtioining worsening and how i dident want to try anymore mood stablizers at this point because A The depression is pretty bad and i dont think a stablizer will do at this point in time until the depression is grabbled.
B. Because i have klonopon,and personaly i see klonopin as somewhat of a mood stablizer.
I also told my doc i dont want to go to Maois again as i have spinnined around on those for years prior to seeing her.
So we mentioned the fact that i show a lot of ADHD sympomts,on top of the fact i partialy responded to dexadrine,on top of the fact i need an added compenet to help fight my depression off.
So she gave me the lowest dose ritalin to start out with,.5mg to be broken in half at first.
Hopefully this can give me a kick in my depression,if this does not work the next thing shell try is lithium to see if it might jump start my AD.
I havent taken it yet,but ive used dexadrine with no problem,i dont see a problem taking a small dose of ritalin in bewteen a parnate dose for myself?
Does ritalin carry anti anti - depressant effects?
