I'm assuming you are talking about the sustained-release form?
Ritalin can increase the availability of dopamine already in your synapses but maybe you have a much lower than average amount to start with. Perhaps supplementing with L-Dopa (I use mucuna pruriens, DopaBean brand) could help. Check out what wikipedia has to say on these.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L-DOPADo some research on dopamine (and serotonin), you'll learn a lot about your brain...
