Sorry to hear about your heart condition and worsening of depression.
Although I have not researched Adderall completely regarding benefits in depression, I would definitely avoid giving to a person with any heart condition. Please discuss with your psychiatrist regarding any safer alternatives including ECT, as a last resort.
Best wishes.
