Anyone had an experience with a Modafinil, and for what did you take it?

I took it for narcolepsy and it did not work. When I was sleepy in the morning, I would take Modafanil (Provigil) and go back to bed and sleep for several more hours. It was like taking a sugar pill. Same with its younger cousin Nuvigil.
But my good friend with Bipolar II loves his Modafanil. It gives me alertness and focus. And of course, it is milder compared to true stimulants. __________________ Bipolar I w/psychotic features Last inpatient stay in 2018 Geodon 40 mg Seroquel 75 mg Lybalvi 5 mg as a PRN Gabapentin 1200 mg, Vitamin B-complex (against extrapyramidal side effects) Long term side effects from medications some of them discontinued: - hypothyroidism - obesity Suspected narcolepsy Treated with Ritalin 5mg |
