Stimulants work great initially, but they cover up versus treating the underlying symptoms of depression, if that makes any sense. You instantly feel great, but that feeling can go away. In my case once I got to this point, I was much more depressed than when starting. Just make sure you are treating the underlying problems and only use stims if absolutely necessary.
