That's not always the case. Sometimes Ritalin is used for bipolar depression, also for people who have BD and ADHD. In those cases, Ritalin can reduce stress.
An open study of methylphenidate in bipolar depression - PubMed


And, of course, there are situations in which Ritalin can set off mania.

If it were me I'd go with how much I trust my prescriber.
