Which antidepressant do you take? Clinical trials have shown that Modafinil (Provigil) works with most SSRI's except that it generally does not work very well with Celexa. Since it does not work with Celexa, it might not work with Lexapro since Lexparo is related to Celexa.
If you are on Celexa or Lexapro, you might consider a different SSRI along with Modafinil.
Another suggestion is to take Wellbutrin. As someone else said, although it might not work well for you alone, it might help if taken along with another antidepressant.
