i have taken provigil for 2 years and LOVED it at first. did all the good things people mentioned and SE, slight headache, stomach, tight muscles were more than worth it. i take klono and neurontin at night so getting to sleep was not a big deal. BUT after a while I found that i started majorly crashing in early evening 3 or 4 hrs after second dose and would get sweats and thrash when i lay down. Pdoc said last 2 were serotonin effects. i felt as if provigil were exhausting a neurotransmitter and then i just had to wait for there to be more the next day.
eventually stopped. now use for a few days at a time, once a day and only 1/4dose (ie 50ish mg hard to tell since pill is only scored for half break.) this gives me same ole benefits w/o crashes.
