Professional input: follow up with your doctor/psychiatrist, since ritalin (methylphenidate) worked fine with they can try another stimulant, which won't cause Raynaud's, although it is listed as side effect for all the stimulatns used to control ADD. Other groups of medications as antidepressants can be used, but again needs a professional input, good luck
