Hi Sally,
Thanks so much for the info ... it sounds like we are on almost the exact same program.I took 300 mg of Adrafinil this morning, and felt quite drowsy and a bit spacy -- even ran through a red light with my 20-month old daughter in the car -- I've never done that before! I don't know whether or not to blame the Adrafinil for that ... I took a Klonapin last night to help me sleep, so it could have been the lingering effects of that (although it's never bothered me before; maybe the combination of Klonapin + Adrafinil? Hmmmm).
Do you know if Adrafinil takes awhile to work, like the SSRIs, or is it immediate, like the stimulants? I have so many questions! Also, if I decided to take more than 300 mg, would I split the dose during the day (like with the Wellbutrin), or take it all at once (like with the Prozac)?
You haven't noticed any side effects? That's good news ...
Thanks again for your response -- sorry for the barrage of questions, but I greatly appreciate your help!
