zuegma: hmmm, are you %100 sure it's provigil?
i have these surreal, though less and less distrubing experiences, though i notice to result from serotonergic agents. trazadone and 5HTP. though provigils in the mix at times, i never made that association.> good or bad, I just took a 200 mg caffeine tablet to keep awake though I am so tired all I want to do is sleep. I have truly horrific sleep paralysis/hypnagogics on provigil, if i let myself lie down in the afternoon, and I really have little incentive to do anything but lie down (exhausted, stressed). The hypnagogics/paralysis was terible- it was like an undifferentiated assault on my nervous system, i was actually able to open my eyes though i was completely paralyzed. and really, when im exhausted, neither provigil nor ritalin keeps me awake if i lie down. the only dofference is that ritalin's sympathomimetic effects let me sleep normally.
