No, unfortunately, Provigil and Nuvigil did nothing at all. I could wake up with an alarm, feeling sleepy, take one of them, as instructed, and go straight back to bed for several more hours of sleep.

My psychiatrist wrote to the state disability office (I was on temporary disability at that time) that I was "resistant to Modafanil".
