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.>>
yes, i felt certain this drug had serotonin effects, although of course this drug is shrouded in mystery. Is the effect like being on too high of a dose of SSRI, assuming you've taken one?
And yes, yes, the crash is awful. It's a little better when I take it with 10 mg Ritalin, but still steep and draining (I hate it). Btw I take it for ADHD and possible narcolepsy, am at 100 mg all in the am to fend off insomnia. Have you also taken Ritalin? Would you recommend it over Provigil?
