Hey! Modafinil is genuinely great. It has worked amazingly today and in synergy with cymbalta, it definitely has mood brightening effects and is really subtle (and balanced) compared to the other ones i have tried. It seems to be memory improving and improve verbal ability too which was unexpected + also has acted like a stimulant in making me more productive and raised energy and anticipation (i think there is some dopaminergic component), also good with coffee!
Could be just that it works well to offset the the dips cymb. sometimes gives, but i don't think it would be overstimulating in someone taking nothing else or an anxiolytic AD like Tianeptine.
Cymbalta is working well. I am slowly working to counter the side effects: soon i will be a finely tuned psychopharmacologically-enhanced superhuman! My final course of action will be to ask about taking a low dose of trazodone to remedy the prevailing insomnia (the only thing currently jeopardising the treatment.) I wonder if you've heard of it? It's virtue seems to be that it has none of habit forming risks that put the GPs off the hypnotics. Faintly got the idea that it might offer more restful sleep too (though that will vary) from looking it up on the net. Looking up drugs on the net must have taken up a good deal of my waking life over the past 6 months and is something i intend to cut down on soon! Can't be healthy.
