From personal experience, they make me feel less "numb" and I have become more emotional and able to function. Depression and anxiety is still there though.

I used to take ADHD medicines and the effects are like a sad mood, irritability, and a flat affect or facial expressions, me personally didn’t like taking them because it makes me lose touch with reality, my mind is focused which is good, but i’m not social. i seem like i’m not in the mood for anything.. i seem sad when i’m on them. but later on in the day you know when they’re wearing off.
