> I just started taking Provigil again -- on my own, just taking what I had left over from when I really was on it -- but I know what it does for me, and it's not going to be an answer. (Mostly because I need a nap every day when I take it. Figure that one out, huh?) But it does help -- it mostly helps with the intrusive thoughts that get me wild with shame and guilt, which sets off the anxiety, etc. It also brightens my mood a bit, but that part stopped being true, thus stopping the drug. I also slept much better when I was on Provigil.

I think it would be worth discussing with your doctor about. I must also apologize for the reply I gave to you a few weeks ago if you remember it. I was way out of line. I didn't mean any of it that I said. I was angry at something else that happened on that day and I redirected it randomly onto you.
