I certainly find that amphetamines are much less anxiety-provoking than Ritalin; at the moment I take Adderall XR 30mg twice daily. I've said it many times before, but I'll say it again -- Ritalin feels like a caffeine overdose to me. If it works for you -- hey, great... but it turned me into a nervous wreck. Both Dexedrine and Desoxyn were extremely helpful, but I've lately found that Adderall is definitely my ADD/depression drug of choice. The l-amphetamine it contains, instead of causing increased side effects as I had anticipated several weeks ago, has actually done nothing more than make me extremely energetic during the day and very motivated -- Desoxyn and Dexedrine never did that for me.
