> I heard that the therapeutic dose was 75mg...my dr prescribed me a max of 75mg and I definitely can feel the effects. I actually had side effects on the 37.5mg and even experienced a lessening of anxiety for the first week at that dose...it took me longer to move up to 75mgt and at the end of my 37.5mg week and a half, I was back to my mood swings. I am hoping that I do not experience this again at 75mg. I have not been on it for very long but do not want to increase beyond 75mg due to the side effects...too scary.

> I did sleep too at first but my motivation came back and I am currently job searching and running 3-4 times per week. I think it's different for everyone...the only thing that doesn't seem to be going away is my lack of sexual interest...that could prove to be a problem in the long run considering I'm a newly wed...eek.

Thanks for the optimistic message. I just took my second nap of the day, and now it's midnight. EEK for me now. I took 75mg of Provigil today, and that did not keep me awake all day. Perhaps this is my reward for enduring a year of agitating wellbutrin with its inner tension feeling.Does anyone know if I can take my 600mg per day of Trileptal in one shot at night as opposed to split between 300mg doses twices a day???
