In reply to Anyone using Provigil?, posted by zeliva on February 25, 2003, at 19:51:11
I've tried Provigil. It had paradoxical reactions for me. At first it would pep me up, but then it was followed by an extreme exhaustion phase where I could hardly walk. Tolerance built up fast. I could see though that it could have benefits for someone else.
I much prefer Provigil's ancestor, which is Adrafinil. It is far cheaper and, to me, way more effective for energy and anhedonic depression.
> My pdoc just gave me a sample of Provigil. He said is used for narcolepsy. I have cyclothymia and I take Seroquel at night for sleep. Every day since I have been so down and lethargic. He said to try this. He also upped my Prozac from 20mg to 30mg. What does this stuff do? How does it make you feel? Any tips please. Thanks.
