I have taken provigil for 2 years. Initial dose of 100 mg taken in morning:first day I totally crashed at 4pm. After several days of adjusting;it was my life-saver. I was prescribed it to augment ADS-every one makes me tired;even the energizing wellbutrin,etc. I continue to take 100mgs in the morning;however some days I have taken another 50 or 100 mg as late as 3 o'clock. Pdoc says don't take it past 4 or you won't be able to fall asleep. That is true! I have depression only; with fatigue being my most severe symptom. No anxiety! BUT I did notice that about 5-6 hrs after taking provigil I did get a headache sometimes AND bad anxiety: crying; shaking.I didn't even know what anxiety was until I discussed these feelings with my sister. So now I have to be sure and take a small dose of xanax to curb the drop. So be careful if you are prone to anxiety in the first place. Also, it totally helps with constipation-can even give you diahrea within an hour after taking it.. Good Luck!
