> From the one experience I have with modafinil it definitely is of some benefit to me for social anxiety and energy in general. However it didn't seem to do anything for attention, from my limited experience I think I need something with an effect on dopamine. Maybe a combination of modafinil and amisulpride would be a possible ritalin alternative? I think the motivational aspect of amisulpride would be particularly useful in my case, although I have heard that it has a high poop out rate.

I can't comment on the amisulpride - never used it but I do believe the modafinil is a very subtle yet effective animal. It can also take a couple of weeks for your body to become attuned to it.

As to the difficulty of getting it in the UK, you've just got the script problem. But modafinil is supposed to have much less potential for abuse than other stims - you're not supposed to be able to "get high" from it. It's not soluble in water - you may as well try dissolving fibreglass in a spoon..! Hence junkie's can't shoot it. I'd definitely try the doc for sure. Tell him/her that you find the Ritalin "too strong" and have heard that modafinil is "gentler" and "less addictive".

Hmm....mentat calculation gives this course of action a 70% chance of success... ;)

Unfortunately for our American comrades, their FDA has classified modafinil as a controlled substance which makes it a prohibited import. I get the impression it's a bit of a fcukup & hopefully for them, the FDA will reverse the decision soon.

What I mean is that with a script, you should be able to legally import 3 months worth from India or Bosnia VERY CHEAPLY. Americans trying this risk the goods being seized by customs, etc on entry.

Dear USA-ians, is my take on this correct?

:)
