In reply to nervous to start provigil...., posted by becksA on April 10, 2006, at 8:42:40
Hi,
I've been on 200 mg Provigil for about 3 weeks now. I've noticed a decrease in binge eating and in impulsivity, which is good. These effects showed up fairly quickly, even at 100 mg. I have mild ADHD, and I added Provigil to address my inattention and hopefully augment my antidepressants.The only negative effect I've had, which I posted about above, but no one seemed to notice, is that if I get too much caffeine, I feel overstimulated. It's not as bad as akithisia, but it did make it hard to relax and my anxiety increased that day.
So definitely limit caffeine until you know how the Provigil will affect you.
Good luck!
