Seems to depend on the situation and the doctor. Just from what I've experienced and what I've seen my friends go through, stimulants are usually added when the primary med(s) just isn't cutting it. So, if your antidepressant leaves you feeling flat and you're unmotivated and can't focus...you might get "dopaminergic augmentation." I think the days of giving depressed patients dexedrine right off the bat are largely over.
