Provigil ( other stims) - anxiety versus energy

Posted by Krazy Kat on March 25, 2002, at 20:05:36

I just started Provigil two days ago. Depakote is at 2000 mg a day.
Felt nothing on the Provigil on 100 mg the first day. Yesterday, felt a little "something" at 200, but not much.
Today - really no improvement in energy (I was tired all day, but, I will admit, I couldn't nap), but I am experiencing the same sort of mini panic attacks I had when I first started Prozac (different class, I know). Also, as the day went on, I got more anxious and actually a tad paranoid (thought someone was following me home). OCD is acting up, too.
Has anyone had good results with Provigil for Energy, not Anxiety? Or any other stims?
I have done badly on Wellbutrin and Prozac (irritable and anxious on the former, high/manic on the latter). Celexa and Serzone just didn't really do anything. I think my pdoc is more interested in the stim side now anyhoo.
Can't tolerate Lamictal for some reason. Have not tried Lithium yet b/c am a rapid cycler.
Thanks a lot.
