Racer: I was feeling the same for the first week. I had more fatigue and yes, suicidal ideation. My pdoc gave me a green light to use left over Ritalin which I tried for 2-3 days and seemed to work well, but then suggested I try provigil 200 mgs instead. I have not been tired, but I have been terribly anxious and irritable. The suicidal ideation remains, which is not pleasant at all.Tomorrow I will try no caffeine, 100 mgs of provigil, and I am about to remove the whole 6 mg patch for the night. I might wait to see how I fare tomorrow before I consider trying 3 mgs per day, or maybe I'll apply 3 mgs and give it a few hours.
I have high hopes for this med. It definitely needs some tweaking, but this can only go on for so long.
