> -Can Nuvigil cause depression?
Probably. Provigil definitely can.
Provigil: modafinil
Nuvigil: armodafinil
> -When can I expect to feel better again/have it out of my system if this is the case?It took me over a week to recover from Provigil-induced depression. Hopefully, you won't have to wait that long to feel better.
> I see my pdoc next week and he's away until then. I don't know what to do; I'm getting very little support from home and have been having a lot of suicidal ideation.
It will pass, and you will feel better.
> I'm really hopeless and just feel like giving up. How come I felt ok for a month and now have no desire to continue and no life left in me?
Too much glutamate release.
Are you taking Lamictal? Nuvigil might act to antagonize the actions of Lamictal (glutamate release inhibition).
Like I said, it will pass. Be patient.
