Hi! I have had a problem with extreme fatigue for over 20 years
for the past 10 years I have been on Prozac 40mg
perphenazine 4mg, and buspar 15mg twice a day)
I sleep 10 hours a nite, then must take 2 two hour naps during the
day. Complained to dr and pdoc about this
last week started Provigil 100mg to 200mg every day
fantastic for first week, too much energy, now its calmed down a little
and I think I may need to up the provigil if its ok with the pdoc
but so far this stuff works!!!!tried seroquel for 3 weeks in may
worst three weeks of my life, slept 18 hours a day
extreme fatique. will never go back to thatsleep for about 8 hours a nite
and NO DAYTIME NAPS LIKE BEFORE
yet like i said the provigil seems to be wearing off a little bit> A little methamphetamine in the morning will clear that sleepiness right up.
> JOKING. Please nobody write and tell me that I'm Satan.
> Again I must go with advising the Seroquel for your sleep problems. It's helped me adjust to some very difficult, long-term sleep problems. (alternating insomnia with extended periods of sleep). I take 100 mg before bed and don't wake up with that Nyquil-type hangover.
