there is a difference between being prescribed stimulants after thorough assessment, and buying them just because you want to get more energy.
Tks montanan4ever for your concern, however, I think, I am out of depression now, or at least know how to live with it and fight it.

Wow! Let me rephrase that....WOW I just don't know what to think. Except, ADD/ADHD is NOT a gift, wrapped or otherwise. Ritalin does not cure depression and not a instant cure-all as you seem to be experiencing. You seem way too gleeful to have been diagnosed ADHD and way...way...WAY to gleeful to have gotten your hands on a highly addictive drug. I suggest you get therapy with all those pills...a lot of therapy.
