In reply to Klonopin/Provigil combo for SP!, posted by Rocket Jackson on November 1, 2002, at 19:29:33

I can see how that would work -- I took 1 mg Klonopin and 100 mg Provigil together for a while. But the diagnosis was different -- panic disorder, ADD, and major depression. Klonopin was (and continues to be) great for panic/anxiety, but Provigil didn't really do it for ADD. However, Provigil was stimulating without added anxiety, and did make me more assertive (which I imagine -- for someone with SP -- could equate to greater confidence in social situations).

Now I take K and Adderall. The Adderall is better for me for focus/concentration and has an additional calming effect at low doses (as well as being a great antidepressant). My pdoc says that Provigil is very hit-or-miss for various conditions, with certain people responding extremely well. He considers it very safe, alone or together with benzos. It's great that this combo is working for you!
