Hi,
I hope someone out there can give me some advice on what I should do about my current med situation. I'm taking 200mg of provigil just to keep me awake and functioning, but I'm also supposed to be taking 2mg of valium twice a day to keep my insane anxiety under control. I also just started taking lamectil to control my mood flare ups. The problem is, without the provigil, I can't stay awake long enough to do anything, and wihtout the valium I'm so anxious that I can't function, but the valium totally dampens the effects of the provigil. Basically leaving me back where I started, slow and sleepy. I take some provigil in the morning with a valium, and half way through the day I take more provigil to get back up, and then another valium to calm down...etc... I feel like I'm on this horrible rollercoaster.
I don't know if anyone else has had a similar upper-downer experience and might have some advice...
