    Many people I know with ADHD/Autism were incorrectly diagnosed with anxiety and depression.

    Autistic burnout is still fairly unknown by medical professionals. It has the same symptoms as anxiety and depression, but a completely different treatment/management.

    I also found Ritalin to be too much of a rollercoaster. It worked perfectly for a few hours, then left me worse than useless for the next few hours.
    The long acting is the same, just slower and less extreme. I still get the near-usless few hours in the evening, but I can plan ahead for them.
