To be honest, I'm not entirely sure how effective it is. I'm feeling better since replacing ritalin with low-dose selegiline, and I started taking rhodiola and alphalipoic acid at the same time. So I'm not sure what's doing what, but I'm happy with the overall result. I was attracted to rhodiola precisely because of its cortisol-lowering potential, and because, like ginseng, it has a touted ability to bring the endocrine system into balance. But I'm sure that, as with most herbs, its effect is gradual and incremental.
