More than likely, you are merely either experiencing a worsening of your depression unrelated to the dexedrine or that you received a level of euphoria that you are associating with the drug "working" in general, or both.

If the latter is the case, you need to get behavioral therapy that trains your mind not to assume it must be on some kind of drug-induced "autopilot" just to complete tasks (a common expectation for ADDers who get depressed while on a stimulant).

Depression commonly accompanies social anxiety and ADD, especially at different times.
